No, it’s not just a Dunkin‘ Donuts marketing ploy, the first Friday in June is National Donut Day!
According to Maholo.com, National Donut Day originated in 1938, when the day was established by the Salvation Army as a way to raise operating funds, as well as to honor the work of World War I volunteers. The day was originally observed by the Chicago branch of the Salvation Army, but soon spread throughout the organization, and further.
