Laura Motes is a former member of the American military who spent the last two decades working at the Athens-Clarke County Police Department. As someone who tries to help animals and her fellow humans with equal compassion, she regularly donates to the ASPEC and Wounded Warrior Project.
The Wounded Warrior Initiative
The Wounded Warrior Project offers programs and services free of charge, helping veterans maintain or rebuild their physical, mental and financial well-being that’s required for them to live a healthy, happy, and productive life after their professional army career.
The Mission of the Organization
The mission of the Wounded Warrior Project is to help these veterans in need, and to raise awareness among the public, hoping that the latter can provide them with aid. The organization relies on donations, and with the help of these donations it can help injured service members through a variety of means, including unique programs that were built with that purpose in mind.
Alumni and Family Members
The organization has 92,351 WWP Alumni at the moment, along with 20,238 family members. These large numbers show that not only there are a lot of veteran who need help in the United States, but that the organization is extremely effective. Those who come back from the battlefield injured or develop post-traumatic stress disorder need the help of others in order to start life anew.
Laura Motes hopes that more and more people will realize just how important this initiation is, and that together they can help most veterans turn things around.
