![]() Friends of Peirce has a few events coming up to support Peirce School Programs such as arts integration, sports and afterschool programs. Be sure to visit Hopleaf (5148 N Clark) and purchase a drink from the Kegs for Kids menu - 100% of the cost of each drink goes to support Peirce School. Speaking of the "Kegs for Kids" program, we are in need of additional donors to purchase kegs so the Hopleaf can donate the proceeds of the purchase of the beer from those kegs. Each keg costs $160 and this donation returns about $500/week throughout the year that supports Peirce. Go to this link and fill in your information and drop off a check at Hopleaf (5148 N Clark) during business hours. Note: Kegs can be split up between families/donors.
