Wounded Warrior Project – New York, New York
 |
Peter Brual, of
HomeNurse, Inc., attended the Wounded Warrior Project, a
program of the United Spinal Association. The benefit was
held at the Millennium Hotel in New York City. “I was
truly touched and humbled by the courage, heroism, and
duty of our young men and women serving in extremely
dangerous missions in the Middle East…the mission of the
Wounded Warrior Project |
| serves a critical
role in rebuilding the lives, dreams, and ambitions of our
severely injured soldiers.”
The event was sponsored by the Dauch Foundation.
Several notable attendees included the Honorable Bob Kerry
and Oliver North. The benefit raised over $350,000.00.
About the Wounded Warrior Project
The Wounded Warrior Project was founded on the principle
that veterans are our nation's greatest citizens. The
Project seeks to assist those men and women of our armed
forces who have been severely injured during the conflicts
in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other hot spots around the
world. Many of the injuries are traumatic amputations,
gunshot wounds, burns and blast injuries that will retire
these brave warriors from military service. These wounded
soldiers will return to civilian life minus one or more
limbs, or with serious wounds or disfiguring scars, and
will face greater challenges today obtaining assistance
and finding opportunities that would enable them to
provide for themselves and their families.
The Wounded Warrior Project was founded to give a voice to
this new generation of veterans facing unique issues and
problems. The Project fills the vital need for a
coordinated, united effort to enable wounded veterans to
aid and assist each other and to readjust to civilian
life.
The Wounded Warrior Project is a program of United
Spinal Association, which is a 501(c)(3)
organization. All donations to the Project are tax
deductible. |
