Since Memorial Day is quickly approaching, I thought I'd share about a great program. The folks at Green Beans Coffee do a lot for our troops. They have a program called Cup of Joe for a Joe. For only $2 a cup, you can buy a service member a cup off coffee. You can buy as many as you like. What's great is that when Green Beans Coffee delivers the free coffee, you get an e-mail telling you in what country the service member is stationed and sometimes the service member will even write a thank you note. Sometimes they'll even include their names. I've gotten notes from lt. colonels, captains, lt. commanders and many others. It's great how such a simple thing as a cup of coffee can encourage someone. And reading the notes encourages me, too. If you are interested in finding out more, check out http://www.greenbeanscoffee.com and click on Cup of Joe for a Joe.
In Texas all the troops get free food from most of the restaurants here. I have heard of cup of Joe for Joe and will look in to it. Thanks for the info. Hope you and your parents are doing well.
