Each year, Deschutes Brewery dedicates $1 per barrel sold to charities throughout its distribution area to help fulfill a goal of building a healthier society. Giving back to charitable causes that focus on important issues like education, the environment, social services, and the arts has always been important to the brewery since it first opened its doors in 1988. Last year, total donations equaled $252,000, increasing to $285,000 in 2014.
