Sip of Hope

Logan Square · Coffee Community-sourced, unverified
📍 3039 W Fullerton Ave, Chicago, IL 60647

Sip of Hope runs on a business model you don't see twice: every cup of coffee costs a flat $5, and 100 percent of what's left after operating costs and staff pay goes straight to Hope for the Day, the Chicago-based suicide-prevention nonprofit that Jonny Boucher founded in 2011 and that this cafe exists specifically to fund.

$
Every cup costs a flat $5, and 100% of proceeds fund Hope for the Day's suicide-prevention work — staffed by baristas certified in Mental Health First Aid, with a resource area for anyone who needs it right at the entrance.

The coffee itself is a short, focused menu — straightforward caffeinated drinks, pastries sourced from West Town Bakery — but the real design choice is at the entrance, where a resource area lays out mental health information for anyone who needs it, staffed by baristas who are certified in Mental Health First Aid rather than just trained to pull a shot. It's in Logan Square, with a pet-friendly patio when weather allows, open 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and a shorter 7-to-1 window on weekends. This isn't performative cause-marketing bolted onto a normal coffee shop — the entire operation is structured around the donation, which is why national outlets (Eater, Al Jazeera, Tasting Table) have all covered it as a genuinely novel nonprofit-coffee-shop model rather than just another Logan Square cafe.

Sip of Hope coffee also shows up in a small food-hall stall inside UChicago Medicine's Center for Care & Discovery in Hyde Park, opened September 2024, though this entry covers the Fullerton Avenue flagship specifically. No happy hour applies here, obviously — the $5 flat price and the cause behind it are the entire pitch.
