Our Mission

Give a boost

When you buy CityKid Java, you’re putting your money where your values are. Every dollar we earn goes to proven programs that support disadvantaged children in the Twin Cities and Central America. In Minneapolis, CityKid Java fuels mentoring and educational programs, athletic teams, camps and youth leadership experiences. Each year more than 1,500 inner-city kids get connected to the role models, mentors and life skills they need to succeed – thanks to CityKid Java drinkers like you.

Our Coffee

Get a Boost

With CityKid Java, you don’t have to compromise your coffee standards to satisfy your conscience. CityKid Java uses only premium beans – 100% Arabica – from the finest high-mountain regions in the world. We pay more than fair trade prices for all of our green beans.  Learn more about our True Trade principles. Whenever possible, we purchase beans that are grown in the shade and processed without chemicals. Our beans are hand-crafted in small batches and slow-roasted locally. They are impeccably fresh-roasted and delivered within days of your order. All of our coffees are Kosher certified. And the result? A virtuous brew that has won 6 out of 6 taste tests against the big-name coffee-chain competitors.
