Community Guidelines

Starbucks depends on our partners to create an environment that upholds our Mission Statement and Guiding Principles. Volunteer-to-Volunteer (V2V) is a grassroots, Starbucks partner- and customer-driven online social network that will allow Starbucks partners and customers to share volunteer experiences and opportunities, and extend the human connection beyond our stores. You can visit the social network site online at www.v2v.net/starbucks. Registration is now open, exclusively to all Starbucks partners.

This site is an extension of the Starbucks work environment and as such, it is essential for all partners to use this site in a responsible, professional manner. Partners who participate in this community must act in accordance with the Guiding Principles, Starbucks Standards of Business Conduct and the Acceptable Use Standard.
