There is nothing quite like the smell of fresh donuts and a hot cup of coffee to bring people together. National Donut Day is celebrated on June 5th and was originally created in 1938 to honor the Salvation Army volunteers who served donuts to soldiers during World War I.
This year several popular chains are offering special deals:
- Dunkin’ – free donut with a beverage purchase
- Krispy Kreme – one free donut, no purchase necessary
- Duck Donuts – free cinnamon sugar donut while supplies last
Cleveland is home to beloved local bakeries like Brewnuts, Goldie’s and Jack Frost Donuts, making it easy to celebrate close to home.
For people of all ages, holidays like National Donut Day are about more than dessert; they are an opportunity to connect, reminisce and even create new memories together. Whether a co-worker brings in surprise donuts for the morning meeting or visiting and supporting your local shop, even small celebrations like these can brighten the day.
From all of us at McGregor Communities, Happy National Donut Day! Go treat yourself!
