Every April (since 2011), Starbucks has encouraged and facilitated community service participation for both partners and customers. Of course, there are Starbucks partners who volunteer their time year-round, but each April Starbucks strongly encourages community service. Anyone (both customers and partners) can use the Starbucks Community Service website and look for events to participate in.
You probably have seen community service banners in your neighborhood Starbucks:
If you’re participating in the April Global Month of Service, I’d love to hear about it. Send your pictures! I’ll be joining two events later this month.
Hope to see you during a volunteer project!

I think this is a great idea! You spend hours on each entry blog which brings me so much pleasure and a sense of community. Thanks for giving us a chance to be a part of the community.
I can’t wait to see the new design of your blog. Hope it’ll be possible soon! Thanks for all the time you spend on this!
Hope the new blog is less stressful for you and I too look forward to seeing the new design. Re the global month of service so funny you wrote this post today because this morning at my local SB I was reading the poster and wondered about whether you would write a piece on it. My local SB has never really included customers in their community programs and they keep it very low key.
Melody, a “cup of coffee” is on its way.
Remember to be like a duck: cool, calm, and collected on the surface and paddling like mad below 😉
“Cup of Coffee” on the way from me too, Melody! Great article as always. You always bring a ray of sunshine into my life and I have two very happy “little baristas” here because of your generosity. I’ll send you a picture soon.
