Review for Veterans Airlift Command, Saint Louis Park, MN, USA
It is people like VAC, Andrew Lourake and Jenna Deibel specifically, who make this life as a caregiver to a wounded veteran easier to lead. They take have both been very amazing angels to our family and 100% supportive anytime we have needed them.
Keep up the good work, you all, and your pilots, are appreciated far more then words could ever explain!
Review for Wounded Warrior Project, Jacksonville, FL, USA
I can't even begin to tell you how much WWP has helped my family! As the spouse of a wounded warrior, I was very worried about the future of my family. WWP has been there right by our side through it all. Shawn Poston at the Nashville office has been a blessing to our family. He has helped us navigate the va and procure all the benefits my husband earned during his service. Even now as his ratings are complete, Shawn is still fighting for us to get a few ratings issues corrected. Navigating the VA is extremely daunting and overwhelming, the VA is definitely not the most pleasant to deal with. Shawn takes all that stress off of us and works with the VA himself so that we don't need to. I can't even imagine where my family would be if it were not for the Wounded Warrior Project.
The ONLY thing I would like to see to make WWP better is more retreats that include the wounded warrior, spouse and children as well as more oppurtinuties for wounded warriors and thier family's to get together with other wounded warriors and thier families.
Review for Veterans Airlift Command, Saint Louis Park, MN, USA
Veterans Airlift Command is simply amazing. My husband was injured in 2009 and just recently left the service. After he got out he was awarded a service dog from another non profit based in Ohio. We live in Tennessee. Trying to figure out how to get there from here with a family of 6 and a wounded warrior who is not allowed to drive was a daunting task. I heard about VAC from a friend who works for Luke's Wings, another non profit who has helped us in the past. Let me tell you, I emailed VAC with our dilemma and was promptly emailed back. Over the course of a week, VAC had taken all the weight off my shoulders and found a flight to accommodate my husband. Not only did Andrew Lourake help us with the flight, but he also helped put us in touch with another wounded warrior in our area. He has proven to my family that there are good people out there who will go above and beyond to help their own. Now that my husband has his service dog, he is able to function much better and his quality of life has drastically improved. Thank you VAC and our pilots for bringing some normalcy back to our lives. You all are truly amazing!!!
