Starbucks is Giving Free Coffee to Health Care Workers This Month

Kudos to Starbucks for giving back! To recognize the significant efforts of the front-line responder and health care community during the Covid pandemic, Starbucks announced today that it will offer a free tall brewed coffee (hot or iced) to front-line responders at participating Starbucks stores throughout the month of December to show appreciation for those keeping our communities safe during COVID-19.

Since the start of COVID-19, Starbucks has provided:

  • 2M+ free cups of coffee to front-line responders
  • 300,000 care packages and letters, each with 1 pound of Starbucks whole bean coffee, to first responders and health care workers in partnership with Operation Gratitude
  • 120,000 cups of coffee and thousands of Starbucks gift cards to local hospitals and front-line responders
  • 110 pallets of K-Cup pod donations to hospitals and military units

The company also donated $100,000 to National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) to support virtual mental health resources for front-line responders and has plans to surprise 50,000 front-line responders with care packages and Starbucks gift cards this holiday season. Read more here.
