 The foundation provides a way for donated funds
and services to directly reach our injured military and a way for concerned
Americans to volunteer to actively support our armed forces.
Our primary objective is to fund programs and organize volunteers to
complement the actual "case work" being administered by AW2
employees.
The role of the foundation is to provide patient advocates,
identify and fund educational opportunities for the soldier, coordinate
specialty counseling (financial assistance, career, housing, etc.), and
assist with emergency funding needs as deemed appropriate.
The foundation receives lists of qualified soldiers needing
support from the office of the AW2 Chief, whose case workers maintain
contact with each injured soldier.
The office of the AW2 program is integral to the success of the foundation
due to HIPAA regulations and other privacy issues. The database of injured
soldiers will remain in the custody of the US Army and or appropriate
service. Only when a soldier has been interviewed, recommended and given
his/her approval will their information be shared with the foundation
for further contact and support.
