GRANTS PASS, Ore., USA – On Friday, Feb. 18, all Dutch Bros Coffee locations will share the Dutch Luv with its annual campaign to raise funds to help provide meals for our communities. Each of the company’s 500+ locations will donate $1 from every drink sold to local food banks.
“Giving back to the communities we serve is part of who we’ve always been. We’re stoked to kick off this year with our 16th annual Dutch Luv Day,” said Katie Hutchison, vice president of social impact at Dutch Bros Coffee. “We’re so thankful for our crews and customers who show up to make a difference, together.”
Dutch Luv Day started as a canned food drive in 2007. It’s grown over the last 16 years to raise more than $2.3 million for nonprofits dedicated to nonprofits dedicated to meeting community needs.
On average, a $1 donation helps provide three meals. In 2021, Dutch Bros raised $537,983 on Dutch Luv day. This allowed local organizations to serve 1,613,949 meals throughout their communities.
This year, Dutch Luv Day partners include Food Bank of Northern Nevada, Boise Rescue Mission, Utah Food Bank, Houston Food Bank and St. Mary’s Food Bank in Arizona.
In addition to its mission of speed, quality and service, Dutch Bros is committed to giving back to the communities it serves. Through its Dutch Bros Foundation and local franchisees, the company donates several million dollars to causes across the country each year.
