Supporting our mission one cup at a time
Smokin Gun Coffee
At SGC we are a veteran based company. So naturally the causes near and dear to us are related to those who have served our country in both time of war and peace. Your purchase of our coffee selection helps support these causes.
Hopeful numbers, and why they matter In 2023, 6,398 Veterans died by suicide, which was 44 fewer deaths than in 2022. According to the report, the 2023 total was lower than 14 of the previous 15 years, which reflects recent momentum in suicide prevention efforts. These numbers show encouraging results and illustrate that continued, collective action to reduce suicide risk and strengthen protective factors (like social support, employment, housing and more) has positive effects in this fight against Veteran suicide.
PTSD & Suicide Prevention
SGC is made up of VFW members who support PTSD and suicide prevention. Many veterans feel helpless when it comes to getting the help they need. We support our VFW Post and work with veterans needing help connecting them with service officers to help them get the help they need.
Serenity Veterans Village
Smokin Gun Coffee met up with Serenity Veterans Village founder Lauren Andrade at a VFW convention. We were intrigued by her passion to build small transitional housing for at risk or homeless Veterans. Upon returning home from overseas Lauren saw the lack of assistance for veterans and was on a mission to find a way to help others. SGC donates to help Lauren in her mission for the homeless.
