A Historical Celebration

Established by the Salvation Army in 1938, this day honors the brave women known as Donut Lassies and Donut Girls, who served donuts and snacks to soldiers during World War I. According to Merle Heatwole, the national commander of The Salvation Army, โNational Donut Day is a time to remember the lasting impact of a unique piece of history and to honor the heroic men and women who have served our country.โ
In celebration, the Salvation Army will distribute donuts to veterans in various cities and host events, including the National Donut Day World Donut Eating Championship at the National World War I Memorial in Washington, D.C.
