UPDATE: Go (RED) this Holiday Season
UPDATE: Just a reminder that in commemoration of World AIDS Day, Starbucks has extended their donation of 5 cents for ALL Starbucks hand-crafted beverages purchased today, December 1st. Today also marks the launch of (RED)WIRE, a digital music magazine that saves lives. You can read more about (RED)WIRE here.
Last month we announced that our sister organization (RED) has partnered with Starbucks. Well beginning tomorrow, November 27th, Starbucks will begin donating five cents from the sale of any (STARBUCKS)RED EXCLUSIVE beverage at all company-owned and licensed stores in the United States and Canada to the Global Fund to invest in AIDS programs in Africa.
This offer will last until January 2nd, 2009. (RED) as you know, has already raised $112 million for the Global Fund. So stop by a Starbucks this holiday season, and get a cup of joe for a great cause.
