Specialized Equine Services and Veteran Equine Therapeutic Services announced receiving a grant from TCC Verizon. SES and VETS are both non-profit organizations that provide therapeutic services through horseback riding to children and adults, individuals with special needs, and veterans with disabilities.

Patricia Nardini, the organization's co-founder, said, "Their grant has empowered us to enhance our communication and technology infrastructure, enabling us to better serve our riders and volunteers."

The grant helps SES and VETS enhance their ability to communicate effectively with riders, volunteers, and the community. It allowed the organizations to purchase a new computer while updating essential software and their website. The grant also enabled SES and VETS to invest in a broadcasting service, allowing them to deliver timely updates.
