Starbucks Features a Charity in Its New Digital Network - Prospecting - The Chronicle of Philanthropy- Connecting the nonprofit world with news, jobs, and ideas

Starbucks Features a Charity in Its New Digital Network - Prospecting - The Chronicle of Philanthropy- Connecting the nonprofit world with news, jobs, and ideas: "With free Wi-Fi now available in nearly all Starbucks stores, the coffee chain is opening its own digital channel this fall to give its customers content they can't find anywhere else. It has already joined with Apple's iTunes, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Yahoo, and Zagat, among others.

The network, called 'My Neighborhood,' features one charity: DonorsChoose.org, a Web site that allows public-school and charter-school teachers to solicit donations online for classroom projects."
