National Donut Day

June 4, 2021 is National Donut Day!

On the first Friday in June, Americans celebrate the goodness that is donuts. But did you know that National Donut Day actually has its roots in doing good? 

The Salvation Army created the first donut day event in Chicago in 1918 as a fundraiser for its military support programs. We proudly carry on the tradition today by raising awareness and support for those in need, including providing shelter, food, and utility assistance, and honoring our front-line workers in the fight against COVID-19.
