6bc471a4-5ec3-4e02-841c-162413557a45Farmington Hills, MI – February 12, 2016 – Living Essentials, LLC, the distributor of 5-hour ENERGY shots, continues to support military causes with the debut of limited edition, Extra Strength Cherry flavor 5-hour ENERGY shots. From May 1 through July 31, 2016, the company will donate five cents from the sale of every specially marked red, white and blue bottle of Extra Strength Cherry flavor 5-hour ENERGY to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation (SOWF), a top-rated nonprofit organization that ensures funding for a full college education for the surviving sons and daughters of fallen military special operations forces who lose their lives in the line of duty. This is the third year of the program.

In previous years, a limited edition, regular strength cherry flavor was featured. However, this year’s program launch marks the first time the extra strength cherry flavor is available.

“The past two years of this program were so successful, raising close to a half million dollars for SOWF, that we decided to offer the cherry flavor in the extra strength variety, which are always incredibly strong sellers for our brand,” said Melissa Skabich, Living Essentials’ communications director.

To order extra strength cherry flavored 5-hour ENERGY shots contact your distributor or 5-hour ENERGY® sales representative at 866-960-1700.
