Buy a coffee on Veteran’s Day, help out vets

On Wednesday, Nov. 11, all Dutch Bros locations in Central Oregon will donate net proceeds from the day’s sales to Central Oregon Veteran’s Outreach and Warfighter Outfitters.

“It is truly amazing that we have the opportunity to support two organizations that do so much for our local Veterans,” said Kaelyn Costa, Dutch Bros Central Oregon Regional Manager. “We are truly thankful to all of our country’s service membersand are grateful to help organizations that benefit them in such positive ways.”

Central Oregon Veterans Outreach, COVO and Warfighter Outfitters are two local nonprofit organizations started by veterans for veterans. COVO began in 2005 with the mission to provide local homeless Veterans with basic living needs and to support them as they make strides to find jobs and live a life away from homelessness.

Warfighter Outfitters provides free-of-charge hunting and fishing trips to veterans who were disabled while in service. The trips, in their own way, provide counseling to these disabled veterans, as well as gives them a sense of fellowship because they are able to meet and discuss the daily trials and tribulations of being a disabled Veterans with others who are going through the same process.

All nine locations in the Central Oregon area will donate proceeds from Nov. 11, to these two organizations that have a mission to help give local Veterans a better quality of life.
