The Wounded Heart Program is a non-profit public benefit corporation that fosters healing experiences for military Gold Star Wives, Husbands and Children who have been affected by the physical and emotional adjustment of losing a spouse. These families continue to face a whole spectrum of challenges, coping with loss, and they should not be forgotten.

The 6, 300 square foot facility houses state-of-the-art equipment to provide mentorship activities children specially designed to help re-connect the child to his/her dreams with the assistance of production technology (i.e. photography, videography, editing, and broadcasting); life coaching to address the emotional challenge each family undergoes from losing a loved one; providing a nurturing place for healing and hope; and personal makeovers for the wives and husbands to give them a “fresh-start” as well as providing commercial improvements for their personal businesses which maybe experiencing hardship.

As the Founder and President/CEO of The Wounded Heart Program, Bobby Sampson has dedicated energy and resources to develop, maintain, and expand the mission of the program to provide services not only to Georgia residents, but offer services to military families everywhere.

“It gives me great pleasure to offer this center to the military families. As a retired serviceman, I witnessed tremendous loss and felt a connection with the families affected by loss. Providing makeover transformations helps give them a fresh new start. Coupled along with life-coaching and mentorship activities, we plan on being an impact for our military families affected by losing a loved-one while creating a truly nurturing environment that fosters healing.” – Mr. Bobby Sampson
