Starbucks
Community Service Program
Gives Grant to Sylvia's Children
Sylvia’s Children is thrilled to
announce the receipt of a $2,500 grant from the Starbucks
Community Service Program. The grant was made in recognition of a
group of Starbucks employees who provided 47 hours of community
service on behalf of Sylvia’s Children. In an ongoing effort to
support the charity, a group of Starbucks locations in central
New Jersey
have been hosting the very successful charity clothing drives that
have generated $12,250 in just over a year. This has been a
wonderful partnership for Sylvia's Children and introduced the
charity to so many new people, we can't thank Starbucks enough!
