Remember your first coffee at Dutch Bros? The joy of bonding with friends over a cup of their delicious and ethically-sourced brew. For me and my friends at the University of Texas at Austin, Dutch Bros is more than just coffee; it's where we found a sense of community, sharing laughs and conversations over each perfectly crafted drink. Yet, sadly, our beloved Dutch Bros remains out of reach, with no locations near our campus.

The demand for Dutch Bros among UT Austin students is undeniable. Many of us prefer it over other coffee shops due to its ethical business practices, affordability, and quality, which consistently surpass expectations. Guadalupe Street, a bustling hub right next to our campus, is the perfect location for this vibrant coffee chain. Not only would a Dutch Bros on Guadalupe enhance the campus culture by providing an alternative space for students to gather and connect, but it would also benefit the Austin community by introducing a popular and ethical business.

Statistics show that the college student population in UT Austin is over 50,000 strong, suggesting a significant market for Dutch Bros' presence. Additionally, Dutch Bros' commitment to social responsibility aligns perfectly with the values cherished by the student body, thus reinforcing a community-centric atmosphere.

We call upon Dutch Bros and local businesses to consider this opportunity seriously. By opening a branch near or on Guadalupe Street, they could tap into a thriving market eager for their offerings while simultaneously fostering meaningful connections among students.

Join us in our quest to bring Dutch Bros to our campus. We believe that having a Dutch Bros nearby will enrich our college experience and promote a positive, community-oriented environment. Please sign this petition to show your support and make our dream of a Dutch Bros at UT Austin a reality!
