Our Mission
The mission of Wall Street Warfighters Foundation is to identify, develop, and place service disabled veterans in careers in the financial services industry. Based in Philadelphia, the program is a six month in-residence course which includes class work, field work, exam preparation and testing, mentorship, and internships, all designed to expose these veterans to the broader aspects of the financial services industry, and to help them gain access to rewarding careers. Corporate partners benefit by adding proven problem solvers to their organization’s workforce, and are enriched through the mentorship and leadership opportunities the program offers.
Our Belief
We believe the community of veterans is a pillar of the free market, a cornerstone of the business community, and a foundation of healthy neighborhoods and households
About
Responding to the Call: fresh ideas for the Veteran business community
The Wall Street Warfighters Foundation (WSWF) prepares disabled veterans for careers in the financial services industry. We are committed to identifying, training and placing those with both an interest and aptitude for the industry. The Foundation identifies with the challenges of recently returned veterans who return home and face difficulty starting new careers. With above average wages and minimal physical requirements, we believe the financial services community is well suited to provide jobs to many returning soldiers with limiting disabilities. Unfortunately, many of those who might otherwise excel in this industry lack the requisite training, certification, familiarity or access to initiate such a career.
The Wall Street Warfighters Foundation will facilitate the necessary training and certification for disabled veterans to enter the industry.
