In a continuing effort to serve those who serve others, Dunkin' Donuts will take spouses, children, siblings and friends of U.S. military troops out to the Iona game Monday night in partnership with Siena Athletics and Operation Adopt a Soldier.
The evening is an extension of Dunkin' Donuts' season-long initiative called Hoops for Troops. For every dunk by a member of the Siena men's basketball team, home or away, Dunkin' Donuts is donating a pound of coffee to Operation Adopt a Soldier. The Wilton, N.Y., based not-for-profit corporation will, in turn, ship the donated coffee to American servicemen and women serving overseas.
Operation Adopt a Soldier will also collect items at Monday's Siena home game to ship to soldiers overseas. Two tables will be set up at the Fan Relations Center on the concourse of the Times Union Center throughout the game. For a complete list of items on Operation Adopt a Soldier's wish list, visit http://www.operationadoptasoldier.org.
