Mystic-based Work Vessels for Vets has announced that 14 injured American service veterans have received $60,000 in equipment from the organization in the first quarter of 2021.

Its donations also went to “one veteran-serving nonprofit,” according to a release.

“Just in time for spring planting, Work Vessels for Vets assembled funds to send two tractors to deserving heroes, a much needed mower to a nonprofit and laptops for the spring semester at school for those vets completing their education,” said John Niekrash, president and co-founder of the charity, in the release.

Among the recipients: a Marine Corps staff sergeant who received two Purple Hearts after surviving two bombings during tours in Iraq and Afghanistan (he got a large tractor to help with his grandfather’s farm in Pennsylvania); a nonprofit equine therapy program for veterans in Pennsylvania (which got a commercial mower), and 14 veterans across the country (who were given refurbished laptops for school). One of these laptops went to an injured Army Special Forces veteran enrolled in medical studies at George Washington University, thanks to a donation from a Mystic widow of a local executive in honor of her husband’s military service.

Work Vessels for Vets is a national charity that gives equipment to wounded veterans who are starting a business. Since its founding in 2008, 2,200 entrepreneurs in all 50 states have received equipment valued at more than $3.4 million, according to the release.
