This coming Friday, March 16th we’re teaming up with a few dozen of our closest friends around the United States for Night of 1000 Pours, a fundraiser benefitting the ACLU. Several companies are stepping up with direct donations, and events are popping off across the country—a full list can be found at our official Night of 1000 Pours website—and we are particularly stoked about the following parties, activations, events, and fundraising initiatives.
Portland, OR at Sprudge Studios (10am-3pm)
Join us for the public debut of Sprudge Studios (3640 SE Belmont) in Portland for a very special Pop-Tart Pop-Up, in partnership with Portland Coffee Social Club. $5 gets you a delicious cup of coffee sourced by La Bodega and roasted by Portland’s own Smalltime Coffee Roasters, with your choice of delightful pop-tart pairing. This event is supported by Breville, Black Rabbit Coffee Service, Oatly, and Pacific Foods. 100% of funds raised will be donated to the ACLU Foundation.
Portland, OR + Los Angeles + New York City at Stumptown Coffee (7pm-10pm)
Stumptown Coffee is showing up big time with three (3) latte art parties at their Downtown Portland, Manhattan West 8th, and LA Arts District cafes. Music, food, prizes, and a $10 buy-in to benefit ACLU.
G&B Coffee and Go Get Em Tiger will be matching tips throughout the day at their coffee bars and donating those funds to the ACLU. Come enjoy what the New York Times strongly implied was America’s best iced latte and support a good cause while you’re at it.
Seattle at La Marzocco Cafe (all day)
Our friends at La Marzocco Cafe are stepping up big by donating 15% of all the days sales to the ACLU. Visit them at their beautiful location inside KEXP (472 1st Ave N) in the heart of Lower Queen Anne.

Coffee Project NY (239 E. 5th St.) will be serving a special drink, “The Dreamers”, with 100% of profits from this drink benefitting ACLU in support of DACA. Check out Coffee Project NY in the East Village and tell ’em Sprudge sent you!
