Coffee Co.
Isolation is the enemy.
This is how we flank it.
Operation Home Shores puts veterans and first responders back on the water, in the woods, and around a table with people who understand. Till Zero Coffee Co. roasts the coffee that pays for the seat.

Why this partnership
The number we are
trying to reach is zero.
Till Zero Coffee Co. exists because too many veterans, first responders and volunteers come home and lose the one thing that kept them steady on the job: a unit. People who show up. People who notice.
Operation Home Shores rebuilds that unit on a flats boat at sunrise, at a fly-tying bench in the winter, at a camp in the fall. Not a program you graduate from — company you keep.
We cannot roast our way to zero. But we can fund the seats, fill the thermos, and keep the boats running. That is the whole deal, and it is not complicated.
If you are struggling right now
You do not have to wait for the next outing. Call or text 988 and press 1 for the Veterans Crisis Line, text 838255, or chat at veteranscrisisline.net. It is free, staffed around the clock, and you do not need to be enrolled in VA care.
We are our brother
and sister’s keeper.

Who we are funding
A veteran-founded Florida nonprofit that runs healthy outdoor programs for veterans and first responders — building fellowship, support systems and conservation work in the places that do people the most good. Founded by Gian DiBella. Their words for it: Fishing. Hunting. Brotherhood.
Fly casting & tying
Seminars on the lawn and virtual tying nights run with North Tampa Fly Tyers.
Inshore & offshore
Guided outings on Tampa Bay and beyond — the core of the program.
Camp & hunt retreats
Multi-day trips where the point is the fire and the people around it.
Conservation & agriculture
Hands in the dirt and work on the water. Routine, growth, something to return to.
How the give-back works
A flat five dollars.
Not “a portion of.”
Cause marketing earns trust exactly once. A fixed dollar amount can be counted by anyone holding a receipt, which is precisely why we chose one.
You buy a bag
$5 is set aside for Operation Home Shores the moment your order ships. Same amount on a one-time order or a subscription shipment. It does not shrink when our costs go up.
We remit quarterly
Funds transfer to Operation Home Shores, Inc. within 30 days of each quarter close, under a written agreement signed by both organizations.
We publish the number
Bags sold, dollars sent, posted on this page every quarter and emailed to the list. If the number is small, we still post it.

Three ways in
Buying coffee is the easy one.
Listed in order of what actually helps, which is not the same as what sells the most coffee. If you only do one of these, make it the first.
Give directly
OHS describes itself as 100% volunteer and donation funded. A direct gift reaches them in full — no product cost, no processing on our side, and it is tax-deductible. If you can, do this instead of buying coffee.
Donate at OHSShow up
Guides, boat captains, cooks and drivers move the needle further than money. OHS posts outings and volunteer needs on their site and social channels.
