As part of The Starbucks Foundation’s Neighbourhood Grants program, Beach United Church was selected to receive a $2,700 grant. This grant award is thanks to a nomination from our local Starbucks partner at 1960 Queen St. East, who recognized the food justice work at Beach United.
Through this unique program, The Starbucks Foundation invites Starbucks partners to nominate a local organization in their community. Since 2019, more than 10,000 grants have been awarded to local organizations, amounting to more than $15 million.

We are so grateful for this grant, and want to thank our friends at Starbucks for nominating us – we are excited to continue our food justice work, and help provide nutritious meals to our community.
