Help Wounded Warriors — Brownells Sales Generate Funding
Brownells will donate a percentage of sales during Veterans Day week to Special Operations Wounded Warriors (SOWW), a 501(c)3 charity dedicated to helping Purple Heart recipients of the Special Operations community. Donations to the SOWW organization will be generated by virtually all purchases this week from Brownells, including Current Sale Items.
Starting Monday, November 8, and lasting through Sunday, November 14 (11:59 pm CST), Brownells will track purchases made at www.Brownells.com and give 4% of those sales to the veterans’ charity, up to a total donation amount of $175,000.
How SOWW Benefits Wounded Veterans and Active Duty Personnel
SOWW’s main mission is to provide therapeutic outdoor experiences to wounded veterans from the various Special Operations forces of the United States military. SOWW also offers other services and counseling to both Special Operations veterans and their families. SOWW is a not-for-profit group that provides outdoor experiences and therapeutic retreats, as well as assistance with medical, physical, and mental therapies for both veterans and active-duty members of the U.S. Special Operations Forces who have been wounded in action. SOWW is funded by donations and is run and operated by unpaid volunteers. Its low operating costs mean over 93% of all donations directly support the veterans and active duty personnel SOWW serves.
“SOWW does great work to help people who have put everything on the line for us and our country,” said Vice President of Marketing Ryan Repp. “Brownells has supported SOWW for a long time, and we are proud to keep finding ways to help them help our Special Operations veterans.”
