Empowering Taiwan’s Youth with the Support of The Starbucks Foundation

We are honored to announce that The Mustard Seed Mission has been selected as a recipient of The Starbucks Foundation's Global Community Impact Grant for our Youth Empowerment Program. This grant will significantly aid in supporting disadvantaged youth in Taiwan, empowering them with essential life skills, emotional development, and financial literacy.

Taiwan is home to many youth who face complex challenges, especially those from single-parent families, low-income households, or those under the care of grandparents. Many of these young people grow up in environments marked by emotional distress, economic hardship, or family instability. Such backgrounds often result in poor academic performance, low self-esteem, and a lack of job readiness. Without intervention, these youth are at risk of remaining trapped in cycles of poverty and disengagement.

Through the Aspire Futures: Empowering Young Minds initiative, we aim to break these cycles. The program offers more than 180 hours of training focused on vital life skills, emotional management, and career preparation, giving students the tools to build a brighter future. The initiative addresses both their inner self-development and external skills, ensuring they have the self-confidence and abilities needed to thrive in the workforce.

We are incredibly grateful for The Starbucks Foundation's support. This partnership empowers us to reach more youth in need, providing them with the resources, mentorship, and training they need to succeed.

Thank you, Starbucks, for helping us empower the next generation of Taiwan’s leaders!
