(13:32 – 15)  Veterans Voices host Nick Toma stops by Patriots Cove in Noxen to learn about a new project that’s underway. The local nonprofit aiming at helping veterans is creating a handicap accessible underwater observatory – the first of its kind in the US. The freestanding and self-sustaining observatory is essentially an “aquarium in nature” meant to help the clients of the cove in their adjustment to life after service.

(15 – 30) Jon Casey joins us in the studio to discuss his new nonprofit idea, Build N Athlete. Currently making it way through nonprofit status, the idea for Build N Athlete is to assist families in purchasing athletic supplies for their children. The group started in the Valley View school district and has spread to the surrounding areas. Casey hopes to spread the group across NEPA and is running in the Steamtown Marathon this October to raise money for Build an Athlete. Casey is also working on #OperationTouchGrass – an initiative that gets kids off screens and the couch and outdoors and in local sports. Learn more at Build-N-Athlete om Facebook
