(July 25, 2017) – Rook Coffee has proudly partnered again with The Valerie Fund for The Fourth Annual Rook Run (and walk) presented by World Subaru (worldsubaru.com) to be held on Sunday, October 8, 2017.

We applaud The Valerie Fund for their tireless commitment to helping children with cancer and blood disorders and we are proud to stand beside you and work towards raising money," said Joe.
