Wounded Warriors in Action
Established in 2007, the Wounded Warriors in Action Foundation (WWIA) is a national 501(c)(3) non-profit organization headquartered in Apollo Beach Florida. The WWIA is dedicated to serving our nation's combat wounded, Purple Heart recipients, by providing world-class outdoor sporting activities.
Our Mission
The WWIA aids in healing the hearts and minds of our Nation's combat wounded heroes (Purple Heart recipients) by providing world-class outdoor sporting activities, chiefly consisting of hunting and fishing opportunities across America.
Our Situation
The country has been at war, now, for over ten years.
As of 16 February 2012, the combined number of combat wounded warriors from OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM, OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM and OPERATION NEW DAWN (OND) was 47,566. See U.S. Casualty Report
These men and women are our Nation’s most treasured asset. Hunting and fishing provide excellent opportunities to assist our wounded veterans in recovering – mentally, physically, and spiritually from their war experiences.
The WWIA Goals
- Increase Self-Reliance
- Bolster Self-Confidence
- Enjoy the Great Outdoors
