"This is a great honor," says Bruce Frcek, president and founder of Boca Java Gourmet Coffee. "We're really passionate about this program. It's a way for us to give a little something back to the brave men and women who safeguard our freedoms."

Boca Java has been donating coffee to U.S. armed forces since 2003. The company established its Operation 2 Million Cup program in July 2005. "This program lets us partner with our customers so we can double our efforts," says Bruce Frcek. Operation 2 Million Cup has already sent more than 1,313,000 cups of coffee to U.S. troops and Frcek asks the public for its continued support.

"The response we've received from our troops in the Middle East shows just how important this program is," Frcek says. "To these soldiers, a good cup of coffee is like a little piece of home."

Boca Java discounts the price of its coffee for this program to just $4 per bag and matches customer donations bag for bag. An eight-ounce bag brews 32 cups of coffee. So a $4 donation sends a delicious cup of gourmet coffee to 64 American soldiers.

To request a coffee donation for a particular troop or soldier, email the soldier's name and shipping information to coffeeforthetroops@bocajava.com. To make a donation, visit www.bocajava.com and click on Operation 2 Million Cup. A personal message can be sent along with your coffee donation.
