It's a patriotic sendoff for thousands of pounds of coffee to U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan! Trish will be singing "Thank a Soldier" and the National Anthem at a special press event, as Newhall Coffee Roasting Company ships enough coffee overseas for 80,000 cups!
Newhall Coffee Roasting Company has partnered with Operation Gratitude to ship thousands of pounds of their “Patriot Blend” coffee to Iraq and Afghanistan. The coffee is packaged in portion packs for troops in the field, each pack brewing 10 cups of coffee. Newhall Coffee has donated more than 3 million cups of coffee to U.S. troops since 2003.
