Houston, TX, April 06, 2026
This May, Rudy’s “Country Store” and Bar-B-Q® is once again bringing communities together to support those who served through its annual Camo “Cup for a Cause” campaign. Combined Arms is honored to be among this year’s benefiting organizations, alongside a coalition of military- and veteran-serving nonprofits working across the country.
Throughout the month, guests at participating Rudy’s locations can donate $1 with the purchase of a beverage served in the brand’s signature camo cup. In return, donors receive a coupon for a free 32-ounce drink on their next visit. The campaign runs through May or while supplies last.
Since launching in 2012, Rudy’s “Cup for a Cause” campaigns have raised over $4 million for military and breast cancer charities.
“It’s an honor to raise money for our Camo Cup charity partners,” said Pete Bassett, VP of Operations. “Our team members are proud of these campaigns because they know how many people we have the opportunity to help.” Rudy's Bar-B-Q operates stores in Texas, Arkansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado, and Arizona. Each store will raise funds for this year’s military-inspired charities.
At Combined Arms, we know that no single organization can meet every need. Real impact happens when communities, partners, and providers work together to ensure veterans and military families can access the right support at the right time.
Campaigns like this not only raise funds but also reinforce the network of organizations dedicated to improving outcomes for those who served.
We’re grateful to Rudy’s and to every individual who chooses to give, knowing that even a small action can help connect veterans to critical resources across housing, employment, mental health, and more.
Visit your local Rudy’s Bar-B-Q location this May, grab a camo cup, and consider making a donation. Every contribution supports organizations working every day to ensure veterans and their families can thrive after service.
