Actor Tom Hanks released a coffee line and will donate all its profits to veterans.
Hanks is known for countless roles in iconic movies, including some that deal with military and war subject matter such as Saving Private Ryan and Forrest Gump. The actor is now selling ground coffee, coffee pods, and instant coffee on a retail website. The company has been dubbed Hanx.
“We saw HANX as a way to support Veterans and military families, as 100% of the profits go to organizations that have proven to be of great aid to those who have served our country,” Hanks said. “Good products for good reason.”
