Welcome to the 2009 Courage Awards & Benefit Dinner
Thank you for your interest in the Courage Awards and Benefit Dinner. The Dinner is now Sold-Out. Please call Jackie Lowey at 631-766-8978 for any inquiries about possible limited availability seating and our waiting list. We are grateful for your support for Wounded Warrior Project and the wounded heroes who have served our nation so bravely.
Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) will host its fourth annual Courage Awards & Benefit Dinner at Cipriani 42nd Street at 6:00 p.m. on May 14, 2009.
WWP’s Courage Awards & Benefit Dinner provides the opportunity to bring together and honor many of the brave wounded warriors who have sacrificed much in service to our nation. The funds raised support thousands of injured service men and women and their families from battlefield to bedside and beyond. Programs range from our signature backpack program, which provides comfort items to newly injured service members — to TRACK, the first education center in the nation designed specifically for wounded warriors. WWP’s benefits counseling, peer mentoring, and adaptive sports programs also aid in the challenging transition from a hospital bed to an independent, productive, and successful civilian life.
We have planned a very special evening to honor our wounded warriors and several outstanding individuals who have gone above and beyond in their efforts to support the heroes who protect our freedom. We are honored that legendary sportscaster Bob Costas will join us as the evening’s host and New York City Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly will be our special guest speaker. There will be cocktails, dinner, the Courage Awards presentation and a few other surprise guests. The dress is black-tie optional.
With your help, we can make the Courage Awards & Benefit Dinner the most successful ever! Last year’s dinner sold out, so I encourage you to make your reservations early! You can purchase tickets on line by clicking “Attend the Event” above.
Thank you very much for your support. We look forward to seeing you at this very special event. Please feel free to contact the dinner coordinator, Jackie Lowey, with any questions at 631-766-8978.
