Repost This

LARKSPUR, Calif., Dec. 17 /PRNewswire/ — For over ten years, and in more
than 65 cafes throughout the Middle East, Africa, Southwest Asia and North
America
, Green Beans Coffee has provided a welcomed moment of respite where
deployed services members can relax, enjoy premium organic coffees, teas and
fresh baked pastries, hear great music and for a few minutes, escape into a
peaceful oasis of tranquility that brings a little bit of home with every cup
of coffee served.

Now, with the introduction of CUP OF JOE FOR A JOE, Green Beans Coffee is
giving everyone an opportunity to express their support for our men and women
in uniform through the simple act of buying a cup of premium organic coffee
and having it delivered along with their own personalized message of thanks to
a soldier serving overseas.

For little more than the spare change in one’s pocket plus a few minutes
of time, visitors to http://www.greenbeanscoffee.com can brighten the day and
send a little bit of home to a soldier deployed overseas. And in keeping with
its continued commitment of service to our troops, Green Beans Coffee will
contribute a portion of every purchase for CUP OF JOE FOR A JOE to worthy
service organizations that support disabled soldiers, military families and
young Americans.

According to Jason Araghi, CEO of Green Beans Coffee Company, the Cup of
Joe For A Joe program touches on one of the fundamental principals of Green
Beans Coffee and its core values:

“Green Beans Coffee was founded in 1996 with the mission that every
soldier and civilian serving their country away from home deserves a morale
boost and an improvement in their quality of life. Our cafes have become a
haven to get away from the stresses of the environment they are in, even if
it’s for only fifteen minutes a day. Supporting these men and women, we
believe, is patriotic and apolitical.”

Araghi goes on to say that during World War II, in excess of twelve
percent of the American public personally knew a soldier that was serving.
Today, it’s estimated that only about one percent of Americans know a soldier
or civilian serving in Iraq or Afghanistan. The Cup of Joe for a Joe program
aims to bridge that gap. This is an opportunity for anyone that supports our
troops around the world to reach out, send a message of thanks, and for as
little as $2.00, make a difference in a soldier’s day.

Green Beans Coffee invites everyone to join in honoring our troops. To
send your own CUP OF JOE FOR A JOE, visit us online at
http://www.greenbeanscoffee.com. And remember, it only takes a few moments,
plus the spare change in your pocket, to express your support and send your
own personalized message of thanks to a soldier serving far from home.
