A veteran’s Alive Day is the day he or she suffered near-fatal battlefield injuries yet managed to survive. Many celebrate their Alive Day each year, like a birthday, to remind them they are indeed lucky to be alive.

H

Staff Sergeant Chad Brumpton wasn’t having brunch

with his family. He was more than 6,000 miles away,

securing a 50-foot bridge on the Euphrates River.

It’s still a Mother’s Day he’ll never forget. During

his mission, an improvised explosive device (IED)

exploded, punching a hole through his tank directly

underneath his feet. Chad was told he would never

walk again.

Over the next two years, he endured 19 surgeries

to try to repair the wounds he suffered that day.

Unfortunately, on January 24, 2008, he finally lost the

battle to save his legs and became a bilateral, below-

the-knee amputee. But that didn’t mean he was

anywhere close to giving up. In fact, Chad’s mantra

became, “I’ll never quit. To the end, I’ll fight.”

Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP), with the help of

generous and caring donors like you, was able to help

Chad overcome the psychological and physical

repercussions of his injuries. And he quickly proved

everyone wrong. Because not only did he walk out

of that hospital, today he’s also running.

The military helped Chad become Staff Sergeant

Brumpton. Donors and volunteers like you helped

Staff Sergeant Brumpton become Chad again.

The goal of Wounded Warrior Project is to make

a positive, lasting impact on the lives of injured

service members on a number of levels. Wounded

Warrior Project helps warriors and their families by:

H Raising awareness and enlisting the public’s aid

for the needs of injured service members.

H Helping injured servicemen and women aid and

assist each other.

H Providing unique, direct programs and services

to meet their needs.

With your help, WWP can foster the most

successful, well-adjusted generation of wounded

service members in our nation’s history. Together,

we can give them the psychological and physical

support they deserve when they need it most. And,

most importantly, we can do it without costing

them a penny. They’ve already paid their dues on

the battlefield.

JESSICA COULTERU.S. AIR FORCE

“It’s about helping you learn more so you can move beyond the worries, physical or mental, and live your life.” H

YOU CAN HELPThere are many ways you can lend your

support, including donating or hosting an event.

DONATE Your generous donation to WWP helps thousands

of wounded service members and their

families as they return home from current

conflicts. You can choose a one-time gift, or

consider the Advance Guard monthly giving

program. Visit woundedwarriorproject.org/

donate or call 877.TEAM.WWP (832.6997)

to get started today.

Carlos was walking across his base to give his father a birthday phone call when the mortars started raining down. Since suffering his serious shrapnel injury, he found ample support from both his family and Wounded Warrior Project. “They have been a life-saver, especially in the recovery process. My family is the most important thing to me. WWP has been there through the ups and downs, when we needed them most.”

HCARLOS DELEÓNU.S. ARMY ALIVE DAY 8.11.2007

HOST AN EVENT You can help Wounded Warrior Project honor

and empower Wounded Warriors by hosting a

community event. This is the perfect way to turn that

neighborhood golf tournament or bike ride into an easy,

fun, donation-generating event. For more information,

visit woundedwarriorproject.org and click

“GIVE BACK” or call 877.TEAM.WWP (832.6997).

KEVIN MCMAHON U.S. ARMY

It was during his first deployment that he was injured. Riding on the back of a troop transport truck in Babylon, Iraq, in full body armor, he was thrown from the vehicle and suffered two compression fractures and a slipped disk. A long string of surgeries have helped him physically, but his main struggles have come from what he calls the invisible wounds of war.

H

Any time is the perfect time to lend your support.

Make a positive, lasting impact. To donate or give

back to these warriors who have given so much,

please visit woundedwarriorproject.org or call

877.TEAM.WWP (832.6997).

BOBBY WOODS U.S. ARMYALIVE DAY 8.8.2010

Sometimes it’s about giving warriors back the things they love in life but never thought they’d get to enjoy again.
