Community

From the neighborhoods where our stores are located to those where our coffee is grown, we are committed to making our communities stronger.

Bringing people together, inspiring change and making a difference in people's lives – it's all part of being a good neighbor. And it's a commitment rooted in the belief that we can balance profitability and a social conscience.

1. Community Service

   

   More than ever, communities are looking to the private sector to share resources and create meaningful change. We’re tapping into a passionate network of people eager to be catalysts in their local neighborhoods.

2. Community Stores

   

   Through their relationships with local nonprofit organizations, these stores are helping support neighborhood revitalization efforts to improve community education, employment, health, housing and safety.

3. Youth Leadership

   

   The Starbucks Foundation believes in developing young people to become extraordinary leaders, by investing in the leadership skills required for the changing global economy.

4. Farming Communities

   

   We’re working directly with coffee, tea and cocoa farmers to develop responsible growing methods. And we’re investing in their communities to ensure a sustainable supply of these crops.

5. Diversity & Inclusion

   

   Aside from extraordinary coffee, Starbucks has made a business out of human connections, community involvement and the celebration of cultures. We are as diverse as the communities we serve.

6. Starbucks Foundation

   

   Created to further our commitment to community, the Starbucks Foundation supports programs that contribute to our communities in meaningful ways.

7. Create Jobs for USA

   

   Too many Americans are unemployed. Create Jobs for USA gives customers, partners and businesses an opportunity to support job creation across the country.

8. Hometown

   

   Naturally, our dedication to thriving neighborhoods, community service, local arts and environmental stewardship extends to the place we call home. We love Seattle.
