“We at NG Enterprises and our partnering businesses are very excited to be able to provide this great opportunity for veterans to realize their dreams of owning a franchise,” said Nicholas Gray. “We have a goal of raising $50,000 in cash, prizes and services to help kick start a business for veterans of the U.S. military.
