GivingTuesday 2026 — Donate to Wounded Warriors
GivingTuesday is the largest single-day giving event of the year. A gift to Wounded Warriors (national 501(c)(3), EIN 86-1336741) on GivingTuesday — when corporate matching programs frequently run 2x or 3x bonus multipliers — funds direct-aid for U.S. military veterans nationwide.
What your GivingTuesday gift funds
- $50 funds a care package for a hospitalized veteran
- $100 (with a 1:1 corporate match = $200) goes twice as far toward emergency aid
- $250 helps fund emergency-aid grants in the next cycle
- $1,250 (with a 1:1 corporate match = $2,500) fully funds one $2,500 housing down-payment grant
- $1,200 helps fund the next emergency-aid grant cycle
