SoldierSocks is a nonprofit organization that provides basic supplies and medical devices to troops deployed in Afghanistan and Iraq. SoldierSocks partnered with Ekso Bionics in 2014 to provide exoskeleton suits to help paralyzed veterans walk again.
“I am excited to join the SolderSocks Advisory Board and look forward to helping SoldierSocks assist members of the Armed Services,” Denver stated in a press release. “I know firsthand how difficult it is to serve abroad and re-acclimate when returning home. SoldierSocks is working diligently to ensure that there are resources available to help veterans in the next phase of their lives.”
“I am delighted to join the SoldierSocks Advisory Board and look forward to helping SoldierSocks continue its mission of helping members of the Armed Services take their next step forward,” Runyan stated. “Our service men and women have put their lives on the line for our country, and SoldierSocks is working hard to ensure they receive the resources they need when they return home.”
