On Sept. 11 2001, After the towers collapsed and rescue workers arrived, they rushed to a nearby starbucks requesting water for the injured, Starbucks complied, charging them a measly $130 for 3 cases of water.
later on, after they paid for the EMTs paid for the water, the ambulance company made some calls and got in touch with Starbuck's CEO, he apologized for this incident and said it was the act of a lone employee and that the employee was dealt with. Then Starbucks immediately donated $1 million dollars to the September 11th victims funds, but it stills asks the question, if this story about the water had not gotten out, would Starbucks have donated anything at all.
Also on another occasion, a group of soldiers wrote to Starbucks telling them how much they loved the coffee and requesting if they could ship some free coffee to them, Starbucks responded with saying NO because they do not support the war.
WTFWTFWTF is wrong with starbucks
