BIRMINGHAM, Ala.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#booksamillionBooks-A-Million, in partnership with Soldiers’ Angels, is back with its 15th Coffee for the Troops program from Saturday, September 26 – Saturday, October 24. The campaign offers customers an opportunity to show gratitude and support for brave service men and women currently serving our country, as well as veterans and patients in VA hospitals throughout the U.S. For every five bags of freshly ground Joe Muggs Coffee donated by customers, Books-A-Million will donate one.

“Coffee for the Troops has grown tremendously over the years and in our 15th Coffee for the Troops campaign we are proud of our customer’s generosity and support in honoring those who have served our country,” said Books-A-Million’s, Vice President Matt Krenza,. “Through our partnership with Soldiers’ Angels, we look forward to building on the success of the Coffee For The Troops program and reaching even more of our veterans and service men and women through our matching contribution.”
