Ever wondered how you could send a quick thank you to a random
service member? Well, here’s an answer
for you.
In 2009, the Green Beans Coffee Company began a program
called “Cup of Joe for a Joe.” Simply
put, this program gives people back home the opportunity to say “thanks” to a
service member through buying them a cup of coffee, tea, etc., and sending a
note of encouragement along with it. The
company operates at several overseas and forward bases. Service members sign up to receive the gift
of a cup of coffee, and Green Beans Coffee Company randomly selects service men
and women to receive the gift through a program developed to help ensure all who
sign up receive at least one gift.
You can purchase a Cup of Joe for a Joe for just $2.00 or
have a box sent to the front for $7.00.
You can donate as many cups or boxes as you’d like. If you happen to have a service member you
know, you can purchase a gift card to have sent to them.
You can donate a cup or box of coffee or find more
information at the Green Beans Coffee Company website found here:
You can also find them on Facebook here:
So, please, if you have a little spare change, take a second
this Memorial Day to remember those who are putting their lives on the
line.
