When their country needed volunteers, they answered the call, and the same can be said of their communities. Some veterans rise above and beyond, and they go on to launch nonprofits with profound purpose and lasting impact. To honor their work, each year, Newman\u2019s Own, founded by actor and World War II Navy rear-seat gunner and aerial radioman Paul Newman, honors a number of truly inspiring military non-profits to award grants to continue their mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This year marks the 20th year of the Newman\u2019s Own Awards, co-sponsored by Fisher House Foundation and Military Times, and while we await the announcement of 2019 winner, we wanted to take time to reflect on past honorees that continue to inspire us with their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Foundation for Women Warriors<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1575\" height=\"900\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Foundation-for-Women-Warriors-3.png.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Foundation-for-Women-Warriors-3.png.png 1575w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Foundation-for-Women-Warriors-3.png.png?resize=300,171 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Foundation-for-Women-Warriors-3.png.png?resize=768,439 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Foundation-for-Women-Warriors-3.png.png?resize=1024,585 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Foundation-for-Women-Warriors-3.png.png?resize=1536,878 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1575px) 100vw, 1575px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Foundation for Women Warriors (FFWW) originally established in 1920 as the California Widows Housing Association, shifted its attention to focus solely on women veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan in 2006.
