Thank you for your interest in Starbucks promotional activities.
Our company has been fortunate to receive a great deal of attention
in recent years regarding our growth and industry leadership. However
the volume of exposure has forced us to set limits on our commitments
and response to the hundreds of unsolicited requests we receive each month.
Please review these guidelines before considering whether to present Starbucks with your opportunity.
 |
|
You may know that our company is very active in community giving in numerous ways,
on both national and local levels – with particular emphasis on CARE and coffee-growing
countries, literacy through The Starbucks Foundation, and environmental programs
implemented through our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) department.
Community-based non-profit organizations seeking Starbucks support may find
opportunities via Starbucks regional groups (see Guideline #2), or visit the
CSR page on this web site for our policies and programs for giving.
|
|
|
Most Starbucks sponsorships are developed and implemented at the local level. Starbucks
contributes to local food banks and sponsors community programs that promote the arts,
cultural events, literature, diversity, the environment, the welfare of children, and
AIDS outreach, support and research. If your opportunity is community-based, you are
welcome to contact individual Starbucks regional marketing offices with your proposal.
|
|
|
Starbucks promotions/sponsorships, if any, pertaining to a national or even global
audience are likely developed internally with overall business objectives in mind.
Therefore we do not solicit and are unable to respond to any such submissions for
national/international sponsorships or co-promotions.
|
|
|
We respectfully decline any proposals regarding consulting services, sports/athletic
endorsements, book endorsements, political or religious activities.
|
|
If you believe your opportunity fits with the above guidelines and you wish to submit a
national sponsorship/promotions proposal, you may do so by completing the attached
information form or by submitting your proposal in writing to:
Attn: National Promotions
P.O. Box 34067
Seattle, WA 98124-1067
|
 |
|
Though Starbucks will always review requests sent to us, we cannot
guarantee a response unless we desire more information. Also please
note that we will not review or respond to faxed unsolicited submissions. |
