  Free coffee for Veterans and the military community. On November 11, 2024, Starbucks will offer a free tall (12-oz) brewed coffee (hot or iced) for Veterans, service members and military spouses at all U.S. Starbucks stores.

• Expansion of Military Family Stores. Starbucks is welcoming nearly 100 on-base Starbucks stores into the Starbucks Military Family Store portfolio. These stores advance Veteran causes, accelerate hiring in military communities, and support the transition from military to civilian careers. Military Family Stores closely collaborate with Veterans Service Organizations to link local Veterans and their families with important resources and services. These on-base stores feature specific elements reflective of the Military Family Store model such as military art, military-designated aprons and guidon flags.
• $200,000 donation to Veteran Service Organizations. Starbucks is donating $200,000 shared evenly to the Elizabeth Dole Foundation and Wounded Warrior Project. These organizations address comprehensive needs of Veteran families.

• Starbucks continues to provide support to nonprofits: During the VA’s Buddy Check Week (Oct 21-25), in partnership with Face the Fight, Starbucks helped raise awareness for Veteran mental health and suicide prevention through the distribution of gift cards for the first 10,000 individuals who signed their pledge to check in with Veterans. Starbucks was recognized as a as a Disabled American Veterans (DAV) Employer and named to Forbes’ inaugural list of America’s Greatest Workplaces for Veterans.
