How We Support Veterans
Honoring Service
Telling Veteran Stories
Veteran Walls and Interviews
Both of our café locations proudly display Veteran Walls—dedicated spaces honoring local service members. We're working to bring these tributes online so more people can celebrate their stories and sacrifices.
Our Veteran Voices series on YouTube features candid conversations with veterans from all walks of life. These interviews spotlight personal stories, challenges, and triumphs, helping bridge the gap between military and civilian communities.
Contact isabelle@bravebeancoffee.com to learn more about inclusion on the veteran wall and interview opportunities.
Donations
Direct Monetary Donations & Gifted Products
We regularly contribute to veteran organizations like the Wounded Warrior Project, helping fund critical services for veterans and their families. These donations support a variety of fundamental programs that improve the daily life of our nation's veterans.
Brave Bean provides coffee and merchandise to groups hosting fundraisers and charity events, such as the Detroit Area Marines and Artists in Arms. These gifts help fuel community at the events and contribute to creative initiatives that uplift veterans.
Looking Ahead
Veteran-Owned Coffee Trucks
Purpose in action: our goal for starting Brave Bean was to make a big impact. In the next five years, we will grow to the point of helping veterans launch their own Brave Bean Coffee trucks. This program will provide startup support, training, and mentorship—empowering veterans to build businesses rooted in purpose.
