- Starbucks Philippines gives back by ‘Giving Good’
- Starbucks launches Christmas special menu
Aren’t we all looking forward to this moment all year long? I mean the jingle bells and all the Holiday shenanigans all boil down to Starbucks Holiday Special, right?
This is the time of the year when we get excited for the next year to come. You know that the holiday season is fast approaching when Starbucks finally launches their special menu. I don’t want to excite you about the actual ‘thing’ that will make you giggle, let’s shed light on the equally important thing during this occasion.
The vision
Every year, Starbucks makes sure that they are eyeing for a better cause. They are known for having one of the grandest CSR in the country, because they surely know how to give back to the community. We always say that the Christmas season is the time when we give instead of receive. That’s what Starbucks want to do especially on the most awaited Holiday of the year.
Giving Good is their newest campaign. Giving good has always been the Filipinos’ habit, as more people exchange smiles and conversations, and join in the season’s heart-warming traditions.
To keep the ‘Christmas Spirit’ alive, Starbucks will start sending cheers with its biggest present to coffee lovers.
“The holiday season is a time for coming together and sharing goodwill. In our stores, we encourage these simple acts of kindness, in recognition of those who spend their time with us and those who embody generosity during this season,” Starbucks Philippines marketing head, Keith Cole said.
