The Starbucks Foundation has more than a 25-year history of investing in communities across the U.S. and globally. In March 2022, The Starbucks Foundation announced a $30 million investment by 2030 in its Global Community Impact Grants portfolio designed to drive locally relevant impact in the communities where Starbucks operates around the world.

Between grants and co-investment from international licensees, over $3.2 million has been awarded in 2024 to date for causes aligned to The Starbucks Foundation’s community impact goals, including youth workforce development, hunger relief and economic opportunity, while also promoting access to human and social services, water and sanitation and greater inclusion and diversity.
