Howard and Sheri Schultz on Philanthropy and the Private Sector

The Aspen Institute recognized Howard Schultz, Chairman and CEO of Starbucks, and Sheri Schultz, Co-Founder of the Schultz Family Foundation, with its 2016 Public Service Award. The Schultzes, and their philanthropic work to connect veterans and youth with job opportunities and resources, were honored at the 23rd Annual Summer Celebration Gala on Saturday, August 6, 2016, at the Institute’s Aspen Meadows campus in Aspen, Colorado.
The Schultzes spoke with Aspen Institute President and CEO Walter Isaacson. The conversation entitled “Values Based Leadership: The Relationship between Philanthropy and the Private Sector,” highlighted the philanthropic work of both Starbucks and the Schultz Family Foundation, including the 100,000 Opportunities Initiative, a coalition of leading US companies committed to engaging 100,000 young people in jobs, internships, and apprenticeships by 2018. The event concluded with a special appearance by Academy and Grammy Award-winning musician and artist Common.
