Today we sent Ji out to visit a coffee shop with a cause on the city's West Side called the Chicago Hope Cafe. The cafe is run by James Ross, a man with a past, who turned his life around. The proceeds from the cafe go to the Chicago Hope Academy, a school that helps under-served children become college bound. Ji is there to lend a hand and learn a thing or two about being a barista.
