Amplifying Impact at Wounded Warrior Project
Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) is unwavering in its dedication to our nation's heroes. However, outdated systems were holding back WWP's fundraising potential and limiting the support it could provide to veterans. They turned to Coastal to transform it's fundraising operations.
TECHNOLOGIES
Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) is a nonprofit organization for veterans and active-duty service members. Since 2003, WWP has been meeting the growing needs of warriors, their families, and caregivers—honoring those who serve by helping them achieve their highest ambitions. Through WWP’s direct programs in mental health, career counseling, and long-term rehabilitative care, along with their advocacy efforts, they improve the lives of millions of warriors and their families.
Why Now
WWP's fundraising team is relentless in their pursuit of supporting veterans, but their previous systems couldn’t keep up with their vision. Despite their best efforts, siloed systems, and manual processes slowed them down. The team recognized that enhancing their systems would empower them to focus on what truly mattered—building relationships and securing the vital funding needed to amplify their impact on veterans' lives.
The Project

Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP): We supercharged their donor management with NPSP, creating a centralized hub to track supporter contributions and interactions, as well as campaign performance.
