I’m all in favor of big corporations that donate to worthy causes. Even in tough times, it’s nice to see people giving back. While I’m not a huge fan of Starbucks approach to business (put every Mom & Pop coffee shop out of business), I am a fan of their recently-launched campaign to raise money for AIDS research.

Every time someone buys a (Starbucks) RED™ Exclusive beverage at participating locations in the U.S. and Canada, from November 27 through January 2, Starbucks gives 5¢ to the Global Fund to help save lives in Africa.

Today, December 1, which is officially World AIDS Day, every hand-crafted Starbucks beverage sold will generate a 5¢ donation to the cause.

Now that’s something to celebrate. (Learn more about the campaign here.)
