Community Service

Community Service

We believe that being involved in our communities is not only the right thing to do, it’s also good business.

Year after year, our partners (employees) and customers inspire and amaze us with how they come together to make the world a better place.

Starbucks has created a variety of programs to facilitate community service and giving. And we keep looking for innovative ways to do this, as we did in January 2009 when we saluted customers with a cup of brewed coffee for their pledge of five hours of community service.

Our Goal

We are encouraging Starbucks partners (employees) and customers to contribute more than one million hours of community service each year.

What We’ve Been Doing

The Starbucks Community Service Program encourages volunteering by supporting projects that bring Starbucks partners and customers together to address issues that directly affect their communities. Launched in April 2010, this program allows our partners to organize projects such as mentoring students at an after-school program, improving hiking trails and conducting park clean-ups in conjunction with local non-profit organisations.
