Call of Duty Endowment Donates $100,000 to Wounded Warrior Project

Posted February 3, 2010 by David Radd

Today, Activision Blizzard's Call of Duty Endowment (CODE) announced that it will donate $100,000 to the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP). This money will be used in establishing a new Transition Training Academy (TTA), which will help injured veterans develop skills for positions in IT fields.

"The TTA program offers an exciting and valuable learning experience for wounded warriors to develop new skills using everyday applications," said CODE advisory council member BG James A. Marks. "We need to arm our retired service members with the tools to embark on a new path towards a successful and meaningful career."

"With this generous gesture, the Call of Duty Endowment will allow us to expand our program to a fifth site and provide this training opportunity to more veterans across the country looking to find a post-military career path in the IT industry," said Chris Roberts, Director of the TTA program.
