I reached out to Wounded Warriors Project and all they did for me was refer me to my local Veterans services for help. They do not provide the services they say they do. I would not recommend this service .

I’ve been a member of WWP for ten years. I’ve tried to connect to people through this organization in person, virtually, through almost every facet. It is completely aimed at cishet white men. Often at events I’m not safe, it’s always been other veterans, but this is something that should be handled systemically. Most events are aimed entirely at men, and if you show up it gets weird. Weird as in, they start asking about your husbands service, or ignore you, or just hit on you. Ten years now, in three states (Texas, Ohio, and Michigan). And it’s just gotten worse in the last few years. DO NOT donate to this organization. unless you want only programming for white guys. Do not attend, if you aren’t a white guy. Or at least don’t expect to be seen, helped, or noticed (except a little passive SA, just to keep the military experience going). Basically these are all the same guys you avoided like the plague when you were enlisted.

THERE IS ALREADY CURE FOR CANCER!

Our experience with WWP... as an "accredited representative" involved several consistent issues that other veterans should be aware of. Despite providing complete STRs, FMRs, and current CTRs/documentation, there were repeated indications that the full evidence set was not accessed or reviewed. Objective evidence was often described as “subjective,” even when sourced directly from STRs and federal systems. There were also multiple instances of regulatory misalignment. The case required filing under 38 C.F.R. § 3.156(c) due to missing STRs and federal records at the time of the original decision, but guidance repeatedly redirected toward AMA Supplemental or New Claim lanes, which do not apply under §3.156(c). Several statements provided were inconsistent with VA regulations, including the nature of Supplemental Claims, the need for nexus letters in cases with in‑service diagnoses and continuity, and the standards governing reconsideration. Communication practices also created challenges, including repeated instructions on how to reply, references to revoking POA tied to procedural disagreements, and non‑responses to detailed regulatory questions. Ultimately, the Veteran transitioned representation to another Service Organization. - Veterans with complex claims, especially those involving missing records, effective‑date issues, or §3.156(c) reconsiderations, may want to ensure their representative has experience with these specific regulatory frameworks... you probably want to avoid WWP... just saying.

Wounded Warrior- the name sounds like something most veterans go through. The wounds of serving are many and often invisible. I don’t like these monstrosity organizations that give huge amounts of money to their leadership team. There is no need. Since you claim you are serving wounded warriors- you should take minimum wages like the rest of us. The majority of your money should go to serving wounded warriors. I am not sure who you serve- it certainly was not me. My VA claim sat on some VSOs office for months- so much so my filing date lapsed. Yeah you know the story. Wounded Warrior- you are not for me. Perhaps for some other veteran maybe?

Disgusting how much money this organization banks off us disabled vets. Your Ceo's yearly pay raise is more than most of us make in a year. Up to $511,000 now,, with the average executive making over $200,000 a year. Your whole organization makes me wanna vomit! You really ought to be ashamed.

As a wounded warrior, when I joined I gave my story upfront. I had a psychotic break in Apr. ‘24 and found myself in legal trouble. No jail/prison time because it was all due to my PTSD, I am however wearing an ankle monitor. I officially joined WWP in the spring of ‘25 (a year after the legal problems started) and attended a few outings which served as a sort of recreational therapy. Fast forward to Sep. ‘25, WWP removes me from all in person events (without telling me) then 4 days later call me back (I called several times) and tell me they removed me from said in person events due to my legal issues that were presented up front. In their words they “dropped the ball” but I’m stuck holding it because of their lack of due diligence. As a vet that suffers from several different mental health diagnoses, this was a great big slap in the face. I was told not to join because of minute things that happened with veterans known to me personally and also by negative reviews due to past issues with donation handling but I am one to judge on my own accord, so I gave it a try. I would not recommend this organization to any veteran as there seems to be incompetence and a lack of integrity at just about every level.

when these guys started up, i was all in, as many are I'm sure. then i decided to check on not just WWP but our other donations because my family and my business were donating every month. Then I saw what they were paying their so-called executives
