Here’s how, where you can get free doughnuts & deals on National Doughnut Day

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Got a sweet tooth that needs to be filled?

National Doughnut Day is on Friday, June 5. If you’re craving something sweet, for free, we’ve got you covered!

National Doughnut Day started in 1938 as a fundraiser, with the goal of helping those in need during the Great Depression and to honor the Salvation Army “lassies” of World War I, who served doughnuts to soldiers.

Now here we are, more than 80 years later, still celebrating the “holiday.”

Below is a list of local shops that will be giving away freebies and deals.

Duck Donuts

In order to receive the free cinnamon sugar donut, guests must download and register on the Duck Donuts Rewards app before June 4, 11:59 p.m.

“As our favorite holiday of the year approaches, our stores nationwide stand ready to Sprinkle Happiness and celebrate National Donut Day with those throughout their community,” said Russ DiGilio, founder and CEO of Duck Donuts.
