Hi there,
I've seen some ideas on the site that have suggested a charity component with a Starbucks® beverage purchase. I wanted to let you know that Starbucks has begun a multi-year partnership with (Product) RED™ and the first part kicks off on November 27. Starting that day until January 3, 2009 we’ll donate five cents from the sale of any (STARBUCKS)RED EXCLUSIVE beverage at participating stores in the United States and Canada directly to the Global Fund, to help save lives in Africa. For more information, see JoinRed.com.
These new drinks taste great, too: The Espresso Truffle, Peppermint Mocha Twist, and the Gingersnap Latte.
Finally, we have some very fun things planned for the (STARBUCKS)RED online experience. Make sure you check out http://www.starbucks.com/red for details.
