The PATRIOT STAR BUSINESS AWARD was established to recognize veterans whose new businesses turned the corner to profitability after receiving essential equipment from Work Vessels for Veterans. In April 2021, WVFV Executive Director Cathy Cook personally visited several veteran businesses around the country to make the awards.
