Wow, that's about all I can say. I've read several articles over the years detailing some of the claims made by former employees and poor fiscal responsibility by WWP, but this one takes the cake. I remember an article where the CEO of WWP was defending his pay, saying look at what other CEO's in the United States make.. Well, the CEO of Starbucks runs a for-profit business, responsible to shareholders, and they make billions of dollars each year. This is the result of an individual thinking he can run a non-profit like a traditional business. I have several friends who were severely injured overseas and they said the WWP basically handed them back packs with socks inside, etc.. Can anyone else speak to stories like that either from experience or some other means?

As a disabled civilian, the number of stories I have heard from disabled veterans are way to long to list. I have been fighting this org. for years. They have $ I have passion & purpose. Now passion and purpose win over GREED.

It is very important ... a non-profit charity must at least maintenance a 90% or above money "spend" on the what they claimed to help. If not, I don't give a penny to them at all.
