HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted June 10, 2015 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) I never cared for the W.W.P, when people make a big profit USEING wounded veterans to benefit them self , I have no use for a charity like that.I think I read some where? from the'' wwp'' donations that they spend 80% on them self(executive salaries) and 20% on the veterans......................Buck Edited June 10, 2015 by Buck52 Philip Rogers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonS Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 This is fairly old news. WWP has been in the news for their actual donation percentage for a few years (less than 60%). The fact that they are suing other charities for using the word wounded when used in the same sentence as warrior blows my mind. The fact that our country's service members need charity because the government cant keep a simple promise is even more mind blowing.

Moderator broncovet Posted June 10, 2015 Moderator Share Posted June 10, 2015 Great Post, Oiler. According to Ask Nod's website, he was sued by WWP. Im personally saddened by money being donated to WWP being used for lawyers to file suits against Alex. Instead, I would like to see WWP use money earmarked for wounded Vets to be used to hire attorney's to represent Veterans at the VA who have been denied benefits. That is, assuming ANY money (earmarked for Veterans) needs to be spent on legal fees, and I dont even know about that. Thats just my opinion. mos1833, Vync and 31Bravo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgiapapa Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I donate to Fisher House Foundation at www.fisherhouse.org They help veterans and their families. Check out their ratings on charity navigator. Although they are not officially a charity or tax deductible., I donate to the Hadit website because it helps veterans and their families.

Notorious Kelly Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) WW has never passed the smell test for me; the commercials present a very appealing package for the masses to purchase some feel-good by donating to wounded veterans who are paraded like 3rd-world children. The only thing missing is flies on their face. Going after Asknod and others who threaten their 'brand' further smears their slick, corporate image. They strike me as another VA in the making.
