Starbucks and MSNBC's "Morning Joe" Team Up

I enjoy Starbuck's and I like Joe Scarborough on his "Morning Joe" show.  So I thought I'd reprint this.

In 2008 alone, Starbucks partners and customers in the U.S. and Canada volunteered 246,000 hours of service toward our goal to contribute over 1 million hours of community service by 2015. We're off to a great start! As we continue to work toward this goal, we will look for creative opportunities to gain wider awareness of the importance of volunteerism and giving back to local communities. With that in mind, we are proud to announce that we are working with MSNBC's
"Morning Joe".

On November 21st, participate in the Brewing Together Day of Service, co-sponsored by Starbucks and "Morning Joe." Make a difference on this day, by logging into the HandsOn Network, and finding a local volunteer opportunity in your area.

In tandem with the event, we are introducing the newly updated Starbucks Gold Coast Blend®: Morning Joe Edition, an intense, full-bodied blend that showcases our finest Latin American and Asia-Pacific coffees. Available exclusively where you buy groceries this bold, flavorful coffee is a fitting accompaniment to conversation, whether around the kitchen table, on the set of "Morning Joe", or during a break while you're volunteering in your community.
