The Starbucks location on Algonquin Avenue in North Bay is trying to do some good this week to help the homeless.  

"Starting Monday we will be asking our customers to purchase a bottle of water to donate to homeless members of our community," a local Starbucks social media post stated.

Starbucks, which will also allow for donations of other bottled Starbucks drinks aside from just water, will be donating the water to H.O.P.E kitchen where the beverages will be distributed into special care packages.  

"We as a community have done an amazing job so far helping out so many different people and we can't wait to continue this work far into the future," the media post continued.
