Starbucks offers free coffee to front-line responders
As ceo Kevin Johnson wrote in a letter to customers this week, amid a dynamic and uncertain time, Starbucks store partners around the world have demonstrated the company’s resilience and commitment to the communities they serve.

Building on this commitment, Starbucks announced it will offer free coffee to front line responders through May 3. In addition, The Starbucks Foundation will donate $500,000 to support front-line responders.
Here are the
details:
- Starting today through May 3, any customer who identifies as a front-line responder to the COVID-19 outbreak will receive a tall brewed coffee (hot or iced) at no charge.

A message from Starbucks ceo Kevin Johnson: A time for resilience
Starbucks chief executive officer Kevin Johnson wrote a letter to customers and partners on Sunday. “I am inspired by our Starbucks store partners around the world who proudly wear the green apron and who are rising to the occasion. They demonstrate our resilience and our commitment to the communities we serve,” Johnson wrote. “It is the responsibility of every business to care for its employees during this time of uncertainty, shared sacrifice, and common cause. I hope to see many business leaders across this country doing all they can to retain jobs, pay employees, continue benefits, and demonstrate compassion as they make critical decisions. Not every decision is a financial one.”

Starbucks temporarily moving to primarily drive-thru-only in U.S., confirms expanded catastrophe pay for worried partners
In a letter to all U.S. partners today, Starbucks announced its company-operated stores in the U.S. and Canada will move to a drive-thru-only model for at least two weeks. Some exceptions will be made for those cafes serving in or around hospitals and healthcare centers in our efforts to serve first responders and health care workers.
In addition, the company also confirmed it will
pay U.S. partners for the next 30 days, even if they choose to stay home.
Here’s are some of the highlights of the letter:
- Starbucks will close access to cafes and reduce service to drive-thru and delivery only for two weeks in the U.S.
- To continue best serving first responders and health care workers, there will be some exceptions for cafes serving in or around hospitals and health care centers.
- Starbucks will pay all partners for the next 30 days, whether they choose to come to work or not.
- In addition to expanded catastrophe pay, Starbucks continues to offer mental health and sick pay benefits, childcare support and more.
“The magnitude of managing through this situation is the single biggest challenge many of us have faced in our lifetime, and I am continually moved by your compassion for each other, our customers and our communities during this exceptionally difficult time. With daily news from friends and family members getting laid off and businesses closing, we need one another more than ever. We need to be a different kind of company,” Williams wrote. “Together, we have successfully navigated many challenges throughout our history, and managing COVID-19 will be no different. You have my word, we will continue to stay true to Our Mission and Values, making the right decisions even when it’s hard, and caring for you and our customers.”

Starbucks will temporarily change to a “to go” model in U.S. and Canada stores
In a letter to all U.S. partners today, Starbucks shared
changes the company is implementing to encourage social distancing, in an effort
to help contain the COVID-19 virus.
“As we all know, the situation with COVID-19 is extremely
dynamic and we will continue to review the facts and science and make
the proactive decisions necessary to protect our partners, customers and
communities,” wrote Rossann Williams, executive
vice president and president, U.S. company-operated business and Canada.
Starting today, Starbucks will be moving to a “to go” model in all
company-owned stores in the U.S. and Canada for at least two weeks.
Here’s what you can expect:
- We are pausing the use of all seating, including both the café and patio areas
- Customers can still walk up and order at the counter, through the “order ahead” feature in the Starbucks app, via the drive thru and use delivery
- We will have a modified condiment bar in all stores
- You may see modified “order ahead” handoff areas on a store-by-store basis
- Temporary closures for company-owned stores in high-social gathering locations, such as malls and university campuses
- Temporary store closures or reduced operating hours in communities with high clusters of COVID – 19 cases
Williams continues, “Every community’s
needs are incredibly different.
We want to make sure we play a constructive role by taking
responsible actions, in partnership with the CDC and
local public health authorities, so we can continue to do what’s
right for our partners and customers.”
Today’s announcement builds on a foundation set by Starbucks chief executive officer Kevin Johnson last week in a letter sharing how the company has been preparing to respond quickly to COVID-19 emerging situations.

Kevin Johnson, Starbucks ceo, outlines steps company is taking for health of customers, partners and community
Starbucks chief executive officer Kevin Johnson wrote a letter to customers today detailing precautionary steps the company has already taken in response to COVID-19 and letting them know about changes they might see going forward.
“We appreciate your understanding that, as a customer, your Starbucks Experience may look different as we navigate through this time together,” he wrote. “While we are currently maintaining regular operations across the U.S. and Canada, our stores are prepared to modify operations with options that still allow us to serve you your favorite beverage and food. This means that as we navigate this dynamic situation community-by-community and store-by-store, we may adapt the store experience by limiting seating to improve social distancing, enable mobile order-only scenarios for pickup via the Starbucks App or delivery via Uber Eats, or in some cases only the Drive Thru will be open. As a last resort, we will close a store if we feel it is in the best interest of our customers and partners, or if we are directed to do so by government authorities. In any such situation, we expect store disruption to be temporary.”
The company has gleaned insights from its experience
in China, he said, where there are encouraging signs of recovery and over
90 percent of the stores have reopened.
“It is our intent to remain transparent,” he wrote.
“Starbucks resilience is owed to our unwavering Mission to inspire and nurture
the human spirit – one person, one cup and one neighborhood at a time.”

Starbucks will offer full support to partners, including catastrophe pay and mental health resources
Starbucks
partners who are sick or need to be quarantined won’t have to choose between
working or taking care of themselves, wrote Rossann Williams, evp and
president, U.S. company-operated business and Canada. It is one of a number of
resources being offered to partners during the COVID-19 outbreak, detailed in
an open letter published Wednesday.
“You have
our full support when it comes to partner care, including access
to catastrophe pay, benefits that support your physical and mental
health, as well as a network of partners who are all here
to help,” she wrote.
In addition
to existing benefits such as sick pay and personal time off, the company will
offer catastrophe pay to any partner who has been diagnosed with or exposed to
COVID-19 or comes in close prolonged contact with someone in their store or
household who has. It also will be available to partners experiencing symptoms,
even if they haven’t been in known contact with someone diagnosed with
COVID-19, and to those who may need to take extra precautions, such as those 60
years or older or who have underlying health conditions. The full catastrophe
pay benefit is for 14 days, but if partners are still unable to return to work,
additional pay replacement may be made up to 26 weeks, she wrote.
Partners can also access other resources such as a range of mental health benefits including free counseling through the Employee Assistance Program and Headspace for mindfulness and meditation. Another resource is the company’s CUP Fund, which provides grants for partners experiencing financial hardship.
