GRANTS PASS, Ore. (May 28, 2024) – Dutch Bros Coffee and its customers banded together to support local youth organizations, raising more than $1.8 million at its annual Drink One for Dane fundraiser. All 1,850+ Dutch Bros locations participated in the 17th annual giveback, donating proceeds from every drink sold on May 17 to nonprofits focused on youth development and well-being. “We are so thankful for the generosity of our customers,” said Christine Barone, chief executive officer at Dutch Bros Coffee. “They showed up in a big way to support youth in their communities. It’s truly amazing to see the impact of Drink One for Dane grow each year and continue to honor Dane’s legacy.” Drink One for Dane began in 2007 in memory of Dane Boersma, one of the co-founders of Dutch Bros, who passed away from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Each year, the Dutch Bros family celebrates his life by giving back to the communities he loved. Over the years, Drink One for Dane has raised more than $15 million. This year, funds were distributed to more than 400 local organizations. Selected nonprofits focus on providing services and programs for youth, ranging from education and mentorship to athletics and arts.
