☕🇺🇸 Join Us for Our First Veterans Coffee Social! 🇺🇸☕

We are excited to partner with Blue Star Families Chicagoland Chapter, who are generously sponsoring and providing all of the Starbucks coffee and tea for our veterans at this special event!

Our goal is simple: create a welcoming space where active-duty service members, veterans, retirees, and military families can come together to relax, connect, build friendships, and strengthen our community. Whether you’re looking to meet fellow veterans, share experiences, learn about local resources, or simply enjoy a cup of coffee with great company, we invite you to join us.

This is our first Coffee Social, and we look forward to growing this opportunity into a place where those who have served—and their families—can find connection, support, and camaraderie.

📅 June 24
🕙 10:00 AM – 11:30 AM
📍 Starbucks
2407 W. 22nd Street
Oak Brook, IL 60523

Registration is required through the QR code on the flyer.

A huge thank you to Blue Star Families and Starbucks for helping make this event possible. We hope to see you there for coffee, conversation, and community!
