About Us
We're building an all-inclusive Veteran community that promotes fellowship where Veterans will be comfortable seeking support and informational services, and developing the services today’s Upper Cape Cod-area Veterans and their families need.
Last year, Joe Q Veteran Coffee Break worked on building its volunteer corps, codifying foundational documents, and establishing priorities and processes for the development of Veteran programs. At the November 2019 Town Meeting, the group launched the initiative to repurpose the former senior center facility at 300 Dillingham Ave. in Falmouth as a community Veterans center. This effort aims to provide a meeting place and hub for Veterans and family members in the Falmouth area to receive information, advice and coordinated services—and enjoy a cup of coffee together.

Here's how the CARES Act changes deducting charitable contributions made in 2021:
Prior to 2020, charitable contributions could only be deducted if taxpayers itemized their deductions.
In 2021, taxpayers who don't itemize deductions may take a charitable deduction of up to $300 for cash contributions made in 2021 to qualifying organizations; in 2021 the limit is increased to $600 for joint filers.
During the summer & fall of 2020, Joe Q Veteran Coffee Break has been building its volunteer corps, codifying foundational documents, and establishing priorities and processes for the development of veteran programs. The vision is to provide a meeting place and hub for Veterans and family members in the area to receive information, advice and coordinated services—and even enjoy a cup of coffee together.
