Did you know National Donut Day began with The Salvation Army? ❤️

In 1917, Salvation Army “Donut Lassies” served fresh donuts to soldiers during World War I to bring comfort, encouragement, and a taste of home. Today, we continue that tradition by celebrating the people who serve our communities every day.

Help us spread a little sweetness by supporting The Salvation Army programs and services in your local community: https://salarmy.us/4nXl9e1
