After suing a company worth billions and winning a $200,000 settlement, the two black men arrested at a Starbucks last month in a highly-publicized and much-debated racial profiling case are only pocketing $1 each. Instead of keeping the money, they’re doing something much more important.

They’re paying it forward.

Donte Robinson and Rashon Nelson, who were arrested at a Philadelphia Starbucks in early April, are setting up a program aimed at supporting young entrepreneurs at area high schools, the Associated Press reports.

"We thought long and hard about it and we feel like this is the best way to see that change that we want to see," Robinson told AP.

The $200,000 program will be launched in collaboration with the city, according to the report.

And in Philadelphia — where more than two in five high school students are black, and black students suffer disproportionate rates of suspension and lower graduation rates than white students — Robinson and Nelson may be on to something.
