World AIDS Day Support


December 1st traditionally commemorates World AIDS Day. Commemorating the 20th Anniversary of World AIDS Day, Starbucks, in parternship with (RED), will contribute 5 cents of every beverage purchased to The Global Fund on December 1st. Throughout the month of December they will also contribute 5 cents of every (RED) beverage purchased to the fund.

Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks remarked that "Since we announced our partnership with (RED) I have been honored by the enthusiasm of our partners and customers who recognize their daily visit to Starbucks will help save lives in Africa." Get out there and get yourselves some coffee for all of those late nights of gift wrapping, studying, and watching all of the Who's down in Whoville.
