Last April, Starbucks Philippines, together with its partners (employees) and local community organizations, continues to celebrate its annual Global Month of Good. Every year, the company encourages partners to support initiatives aimed at improving the local neighborhoods. Global Month of Good started with a mission to promote the importance and value of community service. Since 2011, Starbucks markets globally have been dedicating the month of April to bringing partners together to use our scale for good, supporting programs that positively impact the planet. This year, Starbucks Philippines extended its community-building initiatives, expanding its efforts to key cities outside Metro Manila, while simultaneously amplifying its outreach within the current communities it serves. With more than 450 stores nationwide, the company has placed a priority on supporting youth education and hunger relief.
