IneedMD Inc. Makes Donation to the Wounded Warrior Mentor Program
ARLINGTON, Va., May 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- As evidence of its commitment to honor America's service members, IneedMD announced last week that it has made a donation to the Wounded Warrior Mentor Program (WWMP), an initiative aimed at matching veterans who volunteer as mentors with veterans in military hospitals and other facilities across the U.S. The donation was made during a meeting of IneedMD and WWMP principals, held at the Army Navy Country Club.
"We at IneedMD consider it an honor to meet with gentlemen who take time to enhance the lives of American patriots, and I look forward to maintaining personal involvement in this initiative," said leading NYU neurologist and IneedMD CEO Govindan Gopinathan, M.D.
IneedMD Inc., is a leading New York City-based medical device company known for its EKG Glove, a disposable, portable and easy-to-use device that simplifies the EKG process. The EKG Glove was developed to provide accurate, reliable results that can save lives while eliminating many of the problems surrounding the traditional EKG process.
WWMP Veterans Relations Coordinator Jack Gordon accepted the donation on behalf of the organization, saying it will help WWMP achieve its goals of providing mentorship and support to veterans throughout the U.S.
"It was a pleasure to meet with Dr. Gopinathan today and our organization truly appreciates his time and financial gift," Gordon said. "This money will go directly to assisting the injured veterans who are trying to rebuild their lives."
WWMP mentor Brigadier General (Ret.) Steven Anderson echoed Gordon's gratitude, noting the donation will help the program continue its commitment to the nation's service members. Anderson arranged the meeting between IneedMD and WWMP.
"It's wonderful to see a cutting-edge medical technology company like IneedMD working so hard to give back to the veterans that provide the freedom that we as Americans so easily take for granted," said Anderson, who also serves as chief marketing officer for RELYANT LLC, a veteran-owned business based in Knoxville, Tenn. "As a WWMP mentor, I can assure Dr. Gopinathan and IneedMD that this generous donation will be put to good use."
