Caring and Community
The Love Abounds Foundation was established by Dutch Bros Coffee in 2016 to engage its communities through giving and action. Love Abounds supports programs and projects that build deeper connections through engagement in our Four Core Pillars; Youth, Music, Health, Origins.
Dutch Bros Coffee has always focused more on people than the bottom line, with a desire to transform lives rather than conduct transactions. In our efforts to meet that vision, we donate more than two million dollars annually to various local and national nonprofits. Though many of these donations occur at individual DB locations, we also have company-wide giveback days including Dutch Luv, Drink One For Dane, Buck For Kids and Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This year, our Drink One For Dane day raised $1.3M for MDA's ALS research efforts and family support services
Growing Company
Having started from humble beginnings, as a single espresso pushcart in the small town of Grants Pass, Oregon, Dutch Bros has grown to 300 locations in Oregon, California, Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Colorado and Arizona. We will continue to grow our brand while maintaining our strong culture.
Grants Pass, Oregon
Grants Pass, Oregon, part of the great Pacific Northwest, is home to Dutch Bros Coffee. Grants Pass is located in southern Oregon, a beautiful region known for its climate. There are places for the outdoor enthusiasts to hike, raft, rock climb, surf and snowboard, as well as many local vineyards in our Southern Oregon Wine Country for those that enjoy relaxing and socializing over a world-class glass of wine. The small bundle of local restaurants in the quaint ‘downtown’ area have spectacular food and ambiance. There are local activities such as museums, live theater, and First Friday art nights. Neighboring towns have local attractions such as, the Ashland Shakespeare Festival and the Pacific Northwest's premiere outdoor summer performing arts festival known as the Britt Festival. The cost of living, particularly in the area of housing, is less than the overall state cost of living. With a population of approximately 36,000 people, this is the perfect place to raise a family with a small town community feel. In Grants Pass, the greatest attraction is free--the great outdoors!
