"MDA Day means so much to everyone at Dutch Bros., and we are so pleased for the record-breaking increase in fundraising this year," said company co-founder and Dane's younger brother, Travis Boersma. "This is one of our biggest fundraiser days of the year, and we are proud to partner with the Muscular Dystrophy Association, an incredible organization that helps so many people in our local communities. We are thankful to our amazing customers for their contributions." Each year approximately 5000 individuals are diagnosed with ALS. Each year approximately 5000 individuals loose their battle with ALS. In 2010 Dutch Bros raised over $110000 for families with ALS and did so with the drive, spirit and love of Dane in their heart. Together we will continue Danes fight in his memory for a cure.
