BUY PIERCE BRANDED COFFEE AND HELP SUPPORT school PROGRAMMING. IT IS WIN WIN. Friends of Peirce has partnered with Metropolis Coffee Company to deliver coffee each month to your kiddo’s classroom to bring home. Metropolis generously provides us with coffee at wholesale prices letting us sell at retail. Each bag purchased returns $6 dollars back to Friends of Peirce. Money from this ongoing fundraiser will go directly towards supporting special programs, arts partnerships, teacher supplies and other important resources at the school. Last year we provided the school with over $100,000 in support. (Read our FAQ for more information) ------

After nearly 20 years as a Chicago-based, family-owned, company, Metropolis still rallies behind the idea that got us started all those years ago: Great Coffee for Everyone! Great coffee should improve the lives of everyone who touches it. For us, this means not only working to support our customers, vendors, producers, and employees, but the community that’s supported us since 2003.
Our relationship with Peirce began several years ago, when our co-owner, Tony Dreyfuss, enrolled his children in Peirce and became an ardent supporter. In short, our ties run deep, so when we were searching for a pilot fundraising school, Peirce was a natural choice. We are glad to resume our partnership with Peirce, after a successful first run we hope there are many more to come! ------ ------
