When I was coerced into shopping on Black Friday, I insisted on stopping for a cup of coffee so we could have some break-time before getting back to the stores. I noticed that the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf (in CA/AZ) is taking donations this holiday season for The Help Group, whose mission includes "serving children with special needs related to autism, Asperger's disorder, learning disabilities, ADHD, mental retardation, abuse and emotional problems...The Help Group believes that dignity, hope, opportunity and love are the birthrights of all children. At the heart of its efforts is the commitment to helping young people fulfill their potential to lead positive, productive and rewarding lives."

Seems like a nice organization, and a good reason to choose the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf for my over-priced specialty coffee during the next month.

I don't live in CA or AZ, unfortunately, but I would love to see Starbucks do the same thing. Any bigwigs from Starbucks here?

From the looks of it, "The Help Group" is its own group.
