Thank you to Dianna Cahn of Stars and Stripes for giving us the opportunity to expand on the decision-making process that went into growing Wounded Warrior Project. It was a great interview and the article explains the reasons behind the decision to invest in infrastructure of the the organization to meet the enormous and complex needs of our wounded warriors.
This blog was created by Steven Nardizzi, former CEO of Wounded Warrior Project and Al Giordano, former COO. On March 10, 2016, we were fired by the board of the WWP in the wake of media reports about wasteful spending at the charity we had led for eight years. In the same press release announcing our firings, the Board of WWP issued findings of an independent investigation disproving the allegations contained in those media reports. Nevertheless, the media's false reporting has taken hold and and we are forced to defend ourselves and the wonderful organization and people that has done so much help our wounded veterans.
