Nashville Community to Support Wounded Warrior Project in Payback Charity Event

NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 1, 2017 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Residents of Nashville and from all over the great state of Tennessee will have a chance to rally behind local community foundations on May 3 as part of "Big Payback," a community-wide, 24-hour online giving challenge. Hosted by the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee, residents will have the opportunity to donate to support their favorite charity. Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) will be among the hundreds of local nonprofits registered to participate.

WWP serves warriors through programs that assist them with mental health, physical health and wellness, career and benefits counseling, connecting warriors with one another and their communities, and long-term care for the most seriously wounded. Programs and resources are free of charge to those WWP serves thanks to generous donors. Warriors are empowered to live life on their own terms, mentor fellow veterans and service members, and embody the WWP logo by carrying one another along a path toward recovery.

"In many ways, the communities where our warriors live and work can have a significant lasting impact on their recovery," said Gary Corless, WWP chief development officer. "Community members interact with these injured veterans daily and see their needs. That gives them a chance to understand some of the challenges warriors face when returning to civilian life, but also where they can support those Wounded Warrior Project serves. Events like Big Payback can make all the difference; we're extremely grateful for the past generosity of the Nashville community. We're excited for this year's event, with the community once again helping fuel Wounded Warrior Project's mission to honor and empower Wounded Warriors."
