Dodo Bird Donuts Is Giving Free Donuts Away On National Donut Day

National Donut Day is right around the corner and Dodo Bird Donuts is preparing some sweet deals that dough-n’t want to be missed! On this tasty day, any patron who has contributed to the community through public service is in for a treat – a free donut, to be precise. Whether they’re serving now, or have in the past, Dodo Bird Donuts wants to express appreciation.

But that’s not all. Dodo Bird Donuts is dialing up the deliciousness with customizable cake donuts. Customers can choose from six flavors of sugary homemade toppings to crown their donut. Available in half a dozen or a full dozen takeaway boxes, these donuts provide a perfect excuse to share some sweet delight with loved ones.

Wondering why there’s a day devoted to these sweet rings of joy? National Donut Day was born back in 1938 as a tribute to the Donut Lassies of World War I – a group of brave women who volunteered with the Salvation Army to lift the spirits of soldiers with donuts. With San Diego‘s deep military connections, Dodo Bird Donuts couldn’t think of a more fitting crowd to honor this tradition.

So, head on over, and let’s pay a tasty tribute to public service heroes, donut style!
