Dutch Bros Community Reaches $20 Million in Total Lifetime Donations to Muscular Dystrophy Association During 19th Annual Drink One For Dane Day of Giving

TEMPE, Ariz., May 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Dutch Bros and the Dutch Bros Foundation are proud to announce that the 19th annual Drink One for Dane day has raised more than $1.7 million for the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA). This year's campaign also marks a historic milestone: more than $20 million has been raised for the MDA since the program's inception.* This $20 million lifetime achievement reflects the power of the Dutch Bros community.

"The unified energy of our customers, crews and entire Dutch Bros team rallying together for each annual Drink One For Dane Day of Giving is what keeps Dane's legacy of giving alive and lets us keep making a massive difference, one cup at a time," said Tana Davila, Chief Marketing Officer of Dutch Bros. "We're grateful to have reached our goal of $20 million in total lifetime donations to the MDA and to continue to dedicate support to the Muscular Dystrophy Association's crucial work in ALS research and care."

The achievement reflects a decades-long partnership rooted in Dutch Luv and fueled by the collective support of broistas and their communities united by a shared commitment to making a lasting impact.

"When I visited my local Dutch Bros for Drink One for Dane this year, I felt the heart behind this partnership immediately," said Sharon Hesterlee, PhD, President and CEO of the Muscular Dystrophy Association. "From the broistas to the leadership team, Dutch Bros has built a culture where people truly show up for families facing ALS. Every cup poured helps fund critical research, expert care, and support services that families rely on after an ALS diagnosis. ALS is not incurable — it is underfunded — and partnerships like this are helping drive the breakthroughs and hope families need now more than ever."

Dutch Bros, the beloved coffee brand founded in 1992 by brothers Dane and Travis Boersma, maintains philanthropy as a core part of its identity, which is rooted in co-founder Dane Boersma's dedication to supporting his community. Following Dane's ALS diagnosis, Dutch Bros and the Boersma family started "Drink One For Dane". This annual day of giving was brought to life to generate awareness and help advance research for a cause and cure for ALS. Though Dane passed away in 2009, the commitment to giving back continues on at Dutch Bros to honor his legacy and make a massive difference one cup at a time.

*This total encompasses total lifetime Drink One for Dane donations to the MDA from Dutch Bros, Dutch Bros Foundation, franchisees, vendors and customers.
