Starbuck is putting in 5 million dollars and taking donation to fund small business loans when they can't get it anywhere else. This is a pretty cool idea.
Of course the naysayers would say that since it is a loan, Starbuck is making money. Yea. I think it should be more of a grant than a loan since the public is chipping in (we are not getting any else in return other than a bracelet)

No idea. I think they are still hashing it out since the program doesn't start until Nov 1 (I assume since that is when they are taking donations)

They need to be burly so they can hold all that money they make.
