A local bookstore is asking for your help in bringing joy to our troops all with a cup of coffee.
“I think its terrific.”
This Vietnam Vet is pretty happy to here about the efforts of a bookstore to bring joy to our troops.
“Coffee is one of the things that you have to have in life. a couple of cups gets me going everyday that would mean a lot.”
Books-A-Million is asking customers to buy one of these bags of coffee.
“Books-A-Million bookstores will send them to the soldiers angels organization. a group that provides for armed forces overseas.”
Each bag, with a special message sent directly to the troops.
“We'll go ahead and give them a stickers and they’re write a small message.”
And people are eager to send messages like this one that says much love from Texas. And this one that says where ever you are know that in the middle of nowhere. someone cares.”
Books-A-Million representatives hope the messages and cup of coffee will warm soldiers hearts.
“They do so much for us. they're risking their lives day in and day out so you and i can enjoy individual liberties and freedoms that we enjoy yet tale for granted sometimes.”
“Anything you can do for the troops is great. the more the better.”
If you'd like to show your support by taking part in the program, all you have to do is go over to books-a-million inside Mall Del Norte during normal business hours.
Each bag of coffee is $9.99 plus tax.
Fill out your message and the bookstore takes care of the rest.
