Walk Planned For East Haven Teen Badly Hurt Mowing Lawn

UPDATE: The date is being changed. The walk event is still being planned but it won't be this weekend.

EAST HAVEN, CT - Put on your kicks and walk for Nick at a charity fun walk event in his honor this coming Sunday morning at East Haven High School.

All money made from the event will go directly to help defray Nick and his family’s medical costs.

On July 27, 2017, a 30-foot tree tumbled down and crItically injured then 16-year-old Nick Vessicchio while he was mowing his own lawn.

As his medical expenses continue to mount, the family is going ahead and committed to using all their personal means with the exception of their home as they need a place to take care of Nick.

Please join us for a charity Fun Walk to raise money for Nick's medical expenses!!
