Give Christmas Gifts from These Veteran-Owned Businesses
There are many veterans who are finding personal fulfillment and financial independence as small business owners. Christmas is the perfect time to shop with them. Not just because they’re veterans, but also because they are making quality products. Whether it’s Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday or Give Back Tuesday, start here!
Operation Cookies
This is my top pick for fulfilling business/corporate gifts or even just your list of family and friends. Order on Black Friday and get 10% off. This company is owned by Paul and Angie, “a military couple with a passion for baking and service.” They have a great variety of cookies, including a Christmas-themed collection. My favorite is the Peanut Butter Chip, Chocolate Chip and Reese’s Pieces Cookies. In addition to helping a veteran-owned business, you’re also helping veterans organization. According to their website, “At the end of each month, we make a donation to a veteran organization such as Fisher House, Wounded Warrior Project or the Gary Sinise Foundation.”
