FILE - Bob and Lee Woodruff attend the 15th annual Stand Up for Heroes benefit at Alice Tully Hall on Monday, Nov. 8, 2021, in New York. The Bob Woodruff Foundation , formed in 2006 to serve post-9/11 veterans and their families, has become a celebrity favorite with its annual fundraiser — headlined by Jon Stewart, Tracy Chapman, and Bruce Springsteen — raising $84 million since it was founded and $14 million last year.
“They know the field, and they could do a far better and faster job than I ever could,” said Craig Newmark, founder of Craigslist andRohingya who moved to island in Bangladesh are learning job skills, says Japanese charity chiefNewmark isn’t alone in his enthusiasm for the organization’s approach. MacKenzie Scott donated $15 million, no strings attached, in 2022.
While data show a significant demand for child care, children’s mental health services, and spousal and intimate partner relations among military families, few charities are currently equipped to meet that demand. To enhance its understanding of veteran-serving groups, the Bob Woodruff Foundation often hosts gatherings of policymakers, military families, and experts around specific issues, like financial assistance or PTSD. Those meetings often lead to new grant programs — but they also act as a crossroads for collaboration.
