For some people, every day is donut day. Today, the country lifts a sugary toast to the Salvation Army and calls it National Donut Day.
The idea for a national donut day started in Chicago, as a way to remember the volunteers of the Salvation Army who served donuts and hot coffee to the doughboys of World War I.
You can give some money to the Salvation Army by buying one of their paper donuts, and know that just about every penny you give will be put to good use. As a charity, you can't beat the Salvation Army for not wasting money on big executive salaries and other perks.
If you can handle the extra calories, you can pick up a free donut from Dunkin' Donuts as long as you buy the cup of coffee to go with it. Krispy Kreme will give you a free donut for nothing, no purchase required.
Watching fat grams and carbs and all the rest? You won't ruin your figure by making a donation to the Salvation Army, to support their good works.
