“This food is going to make a difference, whether it’s a child not going hungry for the night or a family that’s able to enjoy a protein plate that they would not have otherwise been able to afford at Starbucks,” explains Starbucks store manager Kienena McFadden. “Rescuing food..from being thrown will change lives.”
It is estimated that the Starbucks FoodShare program will provide 5 million meals to those families in need, which is great news. The coffee giant will steadily roll out the perishable food donations throughout the country until 100% of their 7,600 stores do it every day. It will definitely make a difference to the many households that are struggling to feed their families every day.
