Nichole Veesaert

Nichole Veesaert is WWIA’s Executive Assistant. An integral part of WWIA’s Headquarters in Apollo Beach, Nichole provides event support, processes and allocates donations, and ensures everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.

Nichole is originally from Clarks Summit, PA. She graduated from Millersville University with a BSEd in Mathematics and taught for a year in rural North Carolina. After moving a few times, she ended up in Tampa, FL, working in Payroll for a staffing company. In 2011 she joined the WWIA staff and loved the variety of tasks she did at that time. In 2012 she felt a strong call to go back to the classroom and taught Middle School Math for three years, returning to WWIA in 2015.

When Nichole isn’t working for WWIA, she volunteers weekly at church, does a lot of crafting, and loves traveling. She currently lives with her husband Robert and their dog Ralphie in Apollo Beach.

Nichole loves being back with the Foundation because each day she is doing something that has the potential to positively affect someone. No two days are the same--there is always so much going on! The best part of any day is calling a Hero or reading a testimonial that talks about how transforming an event can be. She feels lucky knowing that she is part of something that can have such a tremendous impact on our Nation’s combat-wounded veterans.
