Starbucks partnered with Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation to launch the “Cup of Kindness” collection. For a limited time, special drinks were served at Starbucks (some served by Gaga herself!) and 25 cents of each cup went towards the foundations’ initiatives, such as Channel Kindness. Right now in Starbucks stores, special Joanne-themed gift cards are also being sold, with intentions on raising more money for the foundation.
