Two Western New York military veterans have new rides. 

Progressive Insurance donated two vehicles Army and Marine Sergeant John Powell and Army Sergeant Candy Varvel. 

It's part of Progressive's 5th Annual Keys to Progress Program. 

Both sergeants are facing tough life circumstances and are in desperate need of need vehicles. 

The  Keys to Progress Program allows the insurance company to give away 100 refurbished cars from accidents to service men and women across the country, each year. 

Progressive-Buffalo partnered with West Herr Collision, Carstar Eastern Hills, and Enterprise Rent-A-Car for this event. 

On top of the new cars, the two veterans received six months of free motor insurance, a year's warranty, and a stash of gift cards.
