C.O. coffee customers help 2 veterans’ groups
On Veteran’s Day, Dutch Bros locations in Central Oregon joined forces with their community to raise a total of $5,348 for local Veterans,$2,674 will benefit Central Oregon Veteran’s Outreach and $2,674 will benefitWarfighter Outfitters.
“The turnout we saw in all three cities was amazing!” said Kaelyn Costa, Dutch Bros Central Oregon owner.”So many of our customers already knew these two great organizations and came byWednesdayspecifically to support them.”
COVO, Central Oregon Veteran’s Outreach, strives to provide local homeless Veterans basic necessities of living and to support them as they take steps towards finding jobs and a life away from homelessness.
Warfighter Outfitter provides a fellowship to disabled Veterans by taking them on hunting and fishing trips, free of charge. On these trips they are able to make connections with others who have enduredsimilar experiences.
To raise funds all nine Dutch Bros locations in Central Oregon donated proceeds from the day’s sales. Funds supported both of these local non-profit organizations and their mission to help support local Veterans and help provide them with a better quality of life.
“I love being a part of this tight-knit, caring community!” said Kaelyn.
