Got Your 6

What Got Your 6 does

Got Your 6 is a nonprofit veteran-serving network operating as a core program of the Bob Woodruff Foundation, a charitable organization founded in 2006. The Got Your 6 Network itself was launched in 2012 and curates a searchable online directory of nearly 400 national and local partner organizations offering free support services to veterans, active-duty service members, and military families. The directory is filterable by U.S. state, territory, and support category, covering ten need areas: education, employment, housing, legal aid, mental health, physical health, policy/awareness, social connection/peer support, transportation, and urgent needs assistance. In 2024, the network reached 2.3 million beneficiaries where they live and work.

The organization's business model is philanthropic rather than commercial: there is no fee-based revenue, no pricing model, and no for-pay customer segment. Operating funding flows through donations and grants to the Bob Woodruff Foundation, with Craig Newmark Philanthropies named as the key enabling supporter of the Got Your 6 Network specifically. The foundation provides operational infrastructure, hosting, marketing, and management for the program. Headcount across the parent foundation is 11–50 employees.

The platform is delivered as a content-managed web directory rather than a proprietary technology product. The Bob Woodruff Foundation site runs on standard WordPress infrastructure with Stripe and PayPal integrated for donation processing, and no proprietary features, APIs, SDKs, or AI/ML components are disclosed. Distribution relies on the foundation's established brand, newsletter, and broad social media presence across LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter/X, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Discord. Go-to-market is essentially self-serve: beneficiaries search the directory directly, and partner organizations join the coalition through relationship-driven outreach by the foundation.
