COOS BAY, Ore. - Bay Area Dutch Bros. Coffee stores are getting into the giving spirit this holiday season, by giving back to area youth.

All day Friday, all three Dutch Bros. locations in the Coos Bay-North Bend area will be donating a portion of their proceeds to the Boys and Girls Club of Southwestern Oregon.

This is the third year in a row the coffee chain has had this promotion, and Boys and Girls Club staff are happy for the help.

"This will just go to our general operating fund, it will help pay staff wages. It helps us out because it provides a little bit of extra money for our youth programs at the club," says Rob Miles with the Boys and Girls Club.

Last year, Dutch Bros. helped raise nearly $800 for the club.

The "Buck for Kids" day will run all day Friday, December 11.

Each store will donate one dollar of every drink sold to the club.
