Has the Wounded Warrior Project lost its focus?

I am member (Alumni) of the Wounded Warrior Project, and a contributor too. In the last several years I have heard more than one veteran trash them and say they are not serving our wounded warriors well. I have read many positive and negative articles about them as well. Have they become too big, and/or lost their focus?

I know there are many great service organizations that are there to support Service Members, Veterans, and Families, but how do you know which ones are in it for the right reasons?

I am interested in your thoughts, as I know there has been a lot of discussion on this in various social media venues.
