Wounded Airmen & Guardians Program
AFA created the Wounded Airmen & Guardians Program in 2011 with a focus on taking care of our DAF service members. The program is made up of supporters beyond just those who have had the privilege of wearing the uniform: We are family members, community supporters, spouses, and friends who make up our Air & Space Forces family. We will always take care of our own.
Who We Help
The Wounded Airmen & Guardians Program supports the Air Force Wounded Warrior (AFW2) program in its mission to provide personalized support and advocacy to wounded Airmen and Guardians, plus their caregivers and their families.
