Citizen Warrior Foundation is more than a private foundation, it is also akin to a Brotherhood (one with both sexes welcomed). We are purposed to safeguard the rights and property of individuals, now distressed, whose stored industriousness has been taken from them through no fault of their own. In pursuance of this noble endeavor, we are continuing to connect with like-minded nonprofits and individuals who are gathering behind our common cause, providing support, and facilitating new opportunities to ease our path forward.
CWF is recruiting Volunteers and welcoming Donors upon our official launch. CWF is formed not only for the Dispositors First Program (those harmed by the Celsius Network) but will continue and expand its operations and programs to ensure such economic injustice, spurred on by, in our belief, bad actors and market manipulation, will be far less likely to occur again.
