The Power of Giving Back Through Specialty Coffee - How It Works

Coffee is one of the most widely consumed beverages in the world, and its popularity is rising every day. With this increased popularity comes an opportunity to leverage coffee sales to give back to the armed forces community by creating an Armed Forces Charity Coffee.

When given the opportunity to work with the U.K.s oldest national tri-service military charity, SSAFA  (Soldiers', Sailors' & Airmen's Families Association), we could not wait to get roasting and begin to start raising money.

Who are SSAFA?

SSAFA have been around for a great deal of time, almost 130 years to be exact. They help thousands of people in the UK and even on military bases around the globe, however, it's not just that which makes them unique and special.

As the world continues to change & evolve, so do the needs of our veterans and service members. They are committed and take pride in their commitment to making sure they are offering them quality services that can be adaptable with their ever-changing needs. SSAFA constantly adapt them to fit with people they support and what they need. This means they can offer everyone that they work with a range of tailored services to help them navigate life in and beyond the military.

By collaborating with multiple military charities and specialist organisations, SSAFA are able to provide the necessary support to those in need. This partnership allows them to ensure that they meet all the requirements of their clients.

Emma Buckingham, SSAFA Regional Fundraising Officer said: “The coffee tastes great and is helping to raise funds for charity, what is not to like!”

Raising money for a Military charity
