Wednesday is World Kindness Day, and Krispy Kreme is helping spread that kindness — with free doughnuts, of course.
The bakery chain is offering a free dozen original glazed doughnuts to eager customers on Wednesday, Nov. 13, in honor of the global holiday.
The offer applies to the first 500 guests in store and or at the drive-thru at participating U.S. locations, no purchase necessary.
“World Kindness Day is a reminder that we can all make a positive impact in people’s lives, including through small gestures like sharing a sweet treat. We hope that each dozen Original Glazed doughnuts we give away enables and inspires many dozens of small acts of kindness,” Krispy Kreme Global Chief Brand Office Dave Skena said in a news release.
Krispy Kreme is also encouraging social media users to share how they spread kindness Wednesday, using the hashtag #KrispyKreme and tagging @KrispyKreme.
Last week, the chain revealed its Thanksgiving-themed collectionwith four new donut flavors for the upcoming holiday.
