Community Involvement
Starbucks is committed to helping support thriving neighborhoods wherever we do business. Being an integral part of neighborhoods is not just the right thing to do for the community, it’s also good for our business.
We know we can accomplish more together than we can alone. We bring together our partners (employees), customers in their communities to make meaningful impact. One way we do this is by inviting customers to join us in local community service projects. This enables us to reach out to customers and communities beyond the walls of our stores while helping our partners build professional and personal skills.
Starbucks is dedicated to empowering young people to be catalysts for change in their local communities. Through our Youth Action Grants, we invest in young people to inspire them to create new and innovative solutions to address community issues while gaining valuable leadership skills.
To amplify our community efforts, we collaborate with like-minded nonprofit organizations, businesses, civic leaders and individuals. We also engage millions of people in dialogue about local and global issues in our social media community My Starbucks Idea.
We invite you to learn more about our community efforts, the programs we support, and our recent milestones.
