Supply Crate – Nicholas

Nicholas requested a Supply Crate so he could use it when hosting hangouts at his house after doing stuff with Ruck Iowa, a support foundation for Veterans built around taking hikes together.


I'm the co-founder of Ruck Iowa (ruckiowa.com) that host events for veterans to come out of self isolation to build relationships with other veterans in the area to prevent veteran suicide. We started in one event in Iowa and now have a several events through out the state. My house has kind of become the hang out place in between events and I'm setting up my basement to serve as a USO or a WRC for us to weekly spend time together through out winter to avoid the winter blues.


What better way to take a break after hiking or during days when the weather is too bad to go out than to play some games? We appreciate Nicholas' dedication to other Veterans and so we sent him out a PlayStation 5 he can use for those hangouts with Ruck Iowa.



Nicholas sent us plenty of photos in response to our Supply Crate. Thanks for getting these over to us so we can show them to folks and our sponsor.

This is so heartwarming! Seeing Nicholas get that PS5 for his veteran hangouts is awesome. It's great how gaming can bring people together. Makes me wanna fire up Ragdoll Archers later!

I’d love to introduce you to geometry dash — it’s colorful, intense, and incredibly fun. The gameplay is all about timing and rhythm, and every mistake pushes you to try just one more time. Highly recommended for fans of reaction-based games.

I find the story “Supply Crate – Nicholas” highlights the power of the gaming community in supporting veterans — specifically helping Nicholas from the Ruck Iowa project create a space for connection and post-combat recovery. More than just sending gaming gear, this action reflects a deep care for mental health through gaming. You can also take part in exciting games at Geometry Dash Spam Test.

The combination of physical activity through Ruck Iowa and then creating a safe, inviting space with a Supply Crate like this PS5 really has an impact on veteran health. google doodle baseball
