Now it's this part that worries me!

Seriously though, nice try, but I guess we can expect nothing more honest from them.

It is funny because I've never bought anything from Starbucks.

I assumed as much (I credit you with much intelligence) and it's annoying when they are so presumptuous in such a letter.

Wow Carolynanna your last comment was so funny. Thanks for tracking down those details. Yes, I think Starbucks is being very stingy.

I know of a much smaller company and they're giving more...

But in the end, the 1 million that Starbucks is expected to raise is better that 0 it could be producing

350 mil may sound like a lot but it's not, especially when compared
to what the US stands to make off of this disaster.

I still believe in the excellent joy of the Frank

I looked into the possibility of going out there to help, but it costs £600 to sign up for a project and then you have to get your flights on top of that. Probably looking at about £1000 in total. Having no current employment, this is a little too much. They do need help at local Oxfam shops though so I am gonna do that.

Here's the link for any British people interested. I am sure Oxfam in other countries needs help too.
