Why are they doing it? It’s National Donut Day, of course, another one of those we-assumed-it-was-fake-until-we-asked-around holidays. According to the sage folks at Big Apple Donuts, National Donut Day began in 1938 as a way to raise funds during the depression. The Chicago Salvation Army was the organization that kicked it off, but now stores all over the country use the first Friday in June to stimulate business and thank customers. According to Dunkin’ Donuts marketing exec Frances Allen the day holds particular relevance this year. “Donuts are one of those foods that lift people's spirits and bring genuine delight to any situation. And now more than ever, Americans are seeking those small moments of happiness," says Allen.
