This week, I announced the presentation of a Back the Blue Award to De Luna Coffee International, a locally-owned coffee business in Pensacola for showing extraordinary support of law enforcement. 

De Luna recently launched a new product and promised to donate some of the proceeds to the Escambia County Sheriff Foundation. The primary goal of the foundation is to strengthen the bond between the men and women of the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office and the community that it serves.

Law enforcement officers work grueling schedules to keep us safe. While we are sleeping, officers are patrolling the streets, monitoring traffic, and keeping watch over our communities. During these long nights and early mornings, coffee can be crucial—and I think it’s fitting that a local coffee company stepped up to help law enforcement.

As Florida’s Attorney General and the wife of a law enforcement officer, it warms my heart to see this local coffee business take initiative in working with their local law enforcement organizations to support the hard-working men and women who keep us safe and their families.

By backing the blue and supporting all of our law enforcement officers, we are building a Stronger, Safer Florida.
