Cup of Joe: Green Beens Coffee Military- How to Do It



Does your loved one in the military loves coffee? Or maybe you just want to be a great fairy Godmother and gift away some coffee? Then Green Been Coffee is your wizard.  This guys have been serving coffee at bases overseas since 1996!


This is how it works:
It’s a pre-paid deal called the Green Beans Coffee Card.   They can be purchased at their web page Green Beans Coffee by clicking the Coffee Card tab. The cards start at $20 and they will add an additional 10% to your Coffee Card's face value.  How great is that?! One thing, you need to know the person you are sending the card to because they will ask you for his/her email address.  It will take some hours for your friend or loved one to be notified via email to pick up the card at his or her local Green Beans café for use in purchase of coffees, teas, smoothies or snacks.

If you cant spend that much but still want to support a service member, you could go to Cup of Joe to a Joe which is the program they have that supports the troops and allows your to send coffee for less money.

This is how it works:
Step 1: Choose your gift: each $2 provides a different Service Member with a Cup Of Joe gift. Here you choose the amount you want to spend.

Step 2: Write Your Message
After you push the BUY button, you'll see a form where you can write your message that will be delivered with each of your Cup Of Joe gifts.
Step 3: Enter your payment information.   You can use a major credit card or PayPal!
Step 4: They'll deliver your gift.
The message you write is delivered to our Troops by email and the freshly brewed cups of coffee are served at Green Beans Coffee cafes on the bases where they're deployed. They'll also give each Service Member a chance to respond - and most of them do, so watch your email for their letters!

The only difference between these two options is that by buying a card you can send the coffee to a specific serviceman (or woman), by using the program your destinatary will be selected randomly.

And then there is the Box of Joe for a Joe…I know I would like to receive a box of coffee!

Each $7 Box Of Joe (BOJ) gift delivers 6 cups of 100% pure freeze dried Colombian Coffee to one Service Member on the front lines plus a fresh Cup Of Joe (COJ) gift to one Service Member at a Green Beans café.


As they say its "an opportunity to connect with and express our support for our men and women in uniform through the simple act of buying a cup of premium coffee and having it delivered along with our own personalized message of thanks to an anonymous Soldier, Airman, Marine or Sailor serving overseas". 

My bf doesn't like coffee or tea (yeah, crazy right?) but anyways is a good option for those there that have loved ones that are crazy about his precious liquid.

Hope it helps!
