Wounded Warrior Project Research Paper

When donating money to organizations many people are worried about if their money is even going to the organization or, if it’s going into someone else’s pocket. Organizations tell people that their money goes to helping people, animals, or anything that will manage to get your attention. Most of these charities make depressing commercials to grab the viewer's attention and make them feel sorry for what has happened to these people or animals. Well the real question is how do you actually know if your money is going to save this innocent dog or this suffering person?
There really isn’t a for sure way to tell who is going to get your money but, you can do research to try to piece the things together and then base your decision on that. As of the money for the WWP, facts have been proven that the Wounded Warrior Project only spends about 60 percent of the donation on the veterans. This is nothing compared to some of the other projects like the Disabled American Veterans Charitable Service Trust Spends about 96 percent and Fisher House spend 91 percent on the vets. This just comes to show us just how much this foundation cares about our United States Veterans. Army Staff Sergeant Erick Millette said, “Their mission is to honor and empower wounded warriors, but what the public doesn’t see is how they spend
their money.In this organization it’s said that they parade the vets around as a fundraising campaign instead of treating them like the heros or even human beings that they are. Our veterans should be treated better than just some fundraising trophy and that’s mostly all that this charity does to them. There is an upside to this organization, they may not be giving the donations to the vets but, they provide free services and programs that focuses on the warriors physical, mental, and long-term financial well-being.
Wounded Warrior Project also gives your family full-time support since they are also suffering. This program has a lot to think about, you have the help that your family member needs and the help you need but, is it the right kind of help that your family needs? If not then there are always more than just this one that might be able to help you. This whole program isn’t all terrible and a lie so it might be right for some people but not
everyone.
In the end, my opinion will stay the same about donating to any type of organization, if you donate your money it is always at risk of being taken. The only way you can make sure this doesn’t happen to you is by giving it to a certain business or to an individual in person. Instead of sending money and putting it at risk you may be able to help by going to an organization and donating your time to spend there doing what you can to help. The little things you do in life are what make you feel the best.
