The Wounded Warriors Project, a group that has been called a “legal scam” by veterans

The Wounded Warrior Project is an anti-gun organization.

Go figure.

Giving away $5 million and spending $88 million on salaries and fundraising IS a scam intended to enrich the heads of the organization.


They are not after individual’s donation.
They switched going after corporate donations and sponsorships years ago, the actual cause forgotten and where $$$$$$ to be made. Big Businesses, nfl, etc.



The Wounded Warriors Project is anti-American, I give to almost all veterans’ groups (especially the USO) but not one dime to the Wounded Warriors Project.and by fools who cannot govern." Chesterton)

It's part of a larger problem of "non-profit" "charity" organizations being set up to primarily benefit their officers.
Wealthy dad sets up nonprofit, appoints kids, grandkids, and kids of friends as trustees. He's then able to donate money to it, deduct the money from his taxes, and the money goes to his grandkids.
