National Donut Day is an annual holiday that is celebrated in the United States on the first Friday of June each year. The holiday was created by The Salvation Army in 1938 to honor the "donut lassies," female volunteers who served donuts to soldiers during World War I.
National Donut Day is now celebrated by many donut shops and bakeries across the United States, who offer free or discounted donuts to customers on this day. The holiday has also become a way for communities to come together and celebrate with donut-themed events and activities.
If you're a donut lover, National Donut Day is a great opportunity to indulge in your favorite treats and maybe even try some new flavors or styles of donuts.
