Needham Electric hosts charitable golf event for the Wounded Warrior Project and Homes for Our Troops

Canton, MA Needham Electric donated $2,500 to both the Wounded Warrior Project and Homes for Our Troops. The proceeds are from the company’s 14th annual golf tournament held at Easton Country Club.

Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) serves veterans and service members who incurred a physical or mental injury, illness, or wound, co-incident to their military service on or after September 11, 2001 and their families.

Homes for Our Troops’ mission is to build mortgage-free, specially adapted homes nationwide for severely injured Veterans Post-9/11, to enable them to rebuild their lives. Needham’s donation will benefit a home being built in Middleboro.

According to WWP, over 48,000 servicemen and women have been physically injured in the recent military conflicts. In addition, as many as 400,000 live with the invisible wounds of war including combat-related stress, major depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Another 320,000 are believed to have experienced a traumatic brain injury while on deployment.
