Coffee for our Troops

More than 1.5 TONS of Coffee Being Shipped from Sacramento to Our Troops Overseas

Sacramento, CA (PRWEB) December 12, 2004 - The Sacramento-based program that sends warm holiday greetings to our troops overseas - “Coffee for Our Troops” - is turning into a massive success!

More than 1.5 tons of coffee is being shipped from Sacramento to our troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan – and that number is steadily on the rise.

The "Coffee for Our Troops" program is run by two Sacramento-based entities: non-profit Move America Forward (www.MoveAmericaForward.org) and specialty coffee roaster, Cornerstone Coffee Company (www.CornerstoneCoffee.com).

Individuals log on to www.MoveAmericaForward.org and "sponsor" a bag of Cornerstone Coffee. They get to enter a personalized message of support for our troops.

The coffee – along with the sponsors name, address and message of support - is then shipped to active duty units serving in Operation Iraqi Freedom (Iraq) and Operation Enduring Freedom (Afghanistan). It only costs $11.95 to sponsor a bag of coffee that includes the postage to have it shipped overseas and your personalized message!
