"The goal of Wounded Warrior Project is to help make this generation of wounded warriors the most successful and well-adjusted in our nation's history," said Overstock.com Chairman and CEO Patrick Byrne, "At least 10% of our employees have or have had family members in the military. Overstock.com felt it was our turn to give back to those men and women who serve our country in Iraq and Afghanistan. Whether or not you agree with the war; here's an opportunity to give valuable assistance to American soldiers."
Overstock.com hopes to raise $30,000 by November 11th, Veteran's Day, by allowing customers to donate a dollar or more to the Wounded Warrior Project at checkout. To learn more visit www.overstock.com/woundedwarriorproject
