Wounded Warrior Foundation Aids Troops

January 10, 2008 By admin

Explosive Ordnance Servicemembers Receive Assistance

Using the approach that it is always easier to recover from an ordeal with friends and family close by, a group in Virginia is working to make recovery possible for a group of heroes.? The Wounded Warrior EOD Foundation was founded to help explosive ordnance soldiers, technicians, and their families through the healing process.

We are aiming to take away some of the stress and financial need from having a loved one injured, said Sherri Beck.? Ms. Beck is the president of the Foundation.? We believe wholeheartedly that having family nearby is vital,said Ms. Beck.

Upon confirmation that a Servicemember who is an EOD technician has received an injury or wound the foundation provides a grant for $2, 500 dollars. This grant is a no questions needed grant, and then if needed the family can apply for a greater level of support.

Assistance is also being offered for any EOD technicians who have been injured for assistance with the whole rehabilitation process. There are expenses and unexpected costs and families need to focus on loved ones, not the costs like airfare, or hotel, and other things,stated Ms. Beck.

Part of the new America Supports You program, the Defense Department started the EOD Wounded Warrior Foundation which helps connect corporations with families, injured warriors, and military personnel serving abroad and at home.

This is all new, and exciting for those involved in the rehabilitation process.  Ms. Beck hopes to have the visibility of the foundation increase, so that more families are aware of the program and what is available to support wounded warriors.

    I am currently publishing a conservative book which, among other things cites miltary history as ammunition to rail against the hideous rules of engeagement our military is forced to abide by. I want to donate a portion of the books profits to the families of dead or wounded military personnel. Please tell me how we may work together to make your foundation my designated charity and how you may assist me in promoting my book as well.

    Hello. I need to speak to someone ASAP about an upcoming project that I am doing with Will Hayden from the TV show ” Sons of Guns ” to benefit the Wounded Warriors Foundation. I am the Adjutant & 9/11 Committee Chairman for the Sons of the American Legion Post 184 in East Greenville Pa and the Pres / CEO of Cramco Enterprises. I am having Red Jacket Firearms build me 2976 , 9/11 – 10th Anniversary Edition M-4s per state legal in and wish to donate to the Foundation some of the proceeds. I will also be making charitable donations to the Entrepid Fund , Purple Heart Foundation and the First Responders Foundation. Please get back to me for further details and any interest that you have in working together on this project. I know that Will has done a show helping a Soldier to get back into hunting after losing the use of his right arm. Well, we want to help that “dream come true” for many to enjoy a fulfilling life after service to our country. Thank you for your time and glad to be of assistance. John Cramsey

    Hello,
    My name is Melissa Borghi, My husband is a wounded warrior but because of his situation he is not eligible for some of the grants that the Wounded Warrior Project and the VA Benefits offer. We need financial help; my husband feels obligated to continue his active duty tour once he is released from WRNMMC because of the situation that we are in. I would love to get into contact with someone who can help ease not only the financial burden but also my husbands stubborn sense of providing, He is a wounded warrior and I think he needs to be remembered as well no matter his medical condition. Please if you know of anyone or any channels that we need to go through that could help us, we would greatly appreciate it. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

    Thank you, I’ve just been looking for info about this subject for a while and yours is the best I have came upon till now. However, what about the conclusion? Are you positive in regards to the supply?|What i don’t understood is in reality how you’re not actually a lot more well-favored than you may be now. You’re so intelligent.

    My Dad, brothers, and daughter’s father-in-law have all served in our nation’s military. After a death in the family, you were mentioned as possible recipients of a donation. 1)How do you disburse and account for money received? How much is paid for administration? 2) Will you assure me that my name will not be handed out to every harassing seeker of donations? 3) The address I saw was just for the navy. My guys have served in all of the services.
    Thank you

    I would like a phone number for a contact person to donate in someone’s honor to the Wounded Warriors Foundation. I do not want to use a credit card. And would the family get a letter that a donation has been made in memory of someone?

    hi,
    for the past few years i have sent Christmas cards to the troops for
    for their enjoyment. The red cross has mailed & distributed the cars in the past. But this year because they are quite spiritual & religious the red cross will do nothing with the cards. Normally i have only sent maybe 5-600

    This year goal was 1,000 but before first fund raiser had over 2,000
    cars paid for. after the raiser one individual wanted to print 5,000 cards.
    So right now have over 7,000 Christmas card ready to be shipped. We are looking for a place to ship & have them distributed.HELP as i have several more fund raisers planned,can’t kill the momentum
    tom keene (480) 984-9634 or(480)363-9347
    Thank you
