Sponsorship will enable even more combat veterans to participate in recreational therapy programs.
EAGAN, Minnesota, May 23, 2024 — Rivers of Recovery (RoR) is pleased to announce that Stryten Energy LLC (www.stryten.com) has provided a generous financial donation for the fourth year in a row to support wounded U.S. combat veterans participating in Rivers of Recovery programs. The donation will directly support combat veterans suffering with post-traumatic stress, mild traumatic brain injury, and other psychological wounds of war by allowing them to go through RoR’s unique rehabilitation program at no cost to them.
“At Stryten Energy, we’re passionate about supporting our military veterans,” said Mike Judd, Chief Executive Officer and President of Stryten Energy. “We are honored to be a part of the impact Rivers of Recovery makes on the lives of returning soldiers by providing outdoor recreational therapy activities combined with other proven treatment.”
As a part of the sponsorship, veteran employees from Stryten Energy will have the opportunity to participate in several fly-fishing trips alongside Rivers of Recovery guides. These trips provide combat veterans with an experiential rehabilitation program that focuses on outdoor recreational therapy activities along with other self-treatment techniques.
This year, Stryten Energy facilitated an additional generous donation on top of their annual donation. After winning a recent charity cornhole tournament, Stryten chose Rivers of Recovery as the beneficiary of the winnings. Stryten’s donation will help RoR expand their programming to more veterans than ever before.
Additionally, Stryten is the platinum sponsor for RoR’s Stars and Stripes charity fishing tournament to be held June 6-7, 2024, in Newburg, MD. Hosted by Mid River Guide Service, teams will compete for awards for the largest fish, most fish and team spirit. All proceeds from the tournament will help Rivers of Recovery in providing additional therapeutic excursions for our nation’s wounded warriors.
“We are grateful for Stryten’s continuous support, which has made an immediate impact on combat veterans participating in our organization,” said Amy Simon, Executive Director of Rivers of Recovery. “As May is also National Military Appreciation Month, their commitment to honor both active and former members of our armed forces is much appreciated. We’re sincerely thankful to Stryten for its leadership and commitment to supporting our nation’s combat veterans.”
Rivers of Recovery is an innovative, national nonprofit that uses outdoor-based activities to effectively treat symptoms of post-traumatic stress, depression, and anxiety in combat veterans and active-duty military. The organization has achieved national media attention for its unique programs and results-driven treatments, which combine fly fishing and other outdoor activities with a scientifically designed curriculum of therapeutic techniques.
