Krispy Kreme Offering Free Dozen Donuts For World Kindness Day

Celebrate World Kindness Day at Krispy Kreme today. The company made a recent announcement that it will commemorate World Kindness Day by offering a dozen free original glazed donuts to the first 500 visitors at select Krispy Kreme locations on November 13. This initiative aims to encourage and empower acts of kindness towards others.

“World Kindness Day is an opportunity to make a positive difference by being generous – from paying it forward to meaningfully connecting with each other. Simple gestures of caring and thanks, including sharing a sweet treat, is a great way to do that,” Global Chief Brand Officer Dave Skena said in the announcement.

These sweet treats, which include innovative flavors like caramel pecan brownie, timeless blackberry crisp, and cinnamon latte lover, will be accessible for purchase until Thanksgiving.
