2016 National Doughnut Day: Where to Find Free Doughnuts Friday

National Doughnut Day is on Friday, June 3, which means there are plenty of free doughnuts to be had. 

But the day, also known as National Donut Day, isn't just about stuffing your face with the tasty treats. 

National Doughnut Day commemorates the “donut lassies,” female Salvation Army volunteers who mended clothes and served home-cooked meals, including doughnuts, to American soldiers during World War I. The Salvation Army marked the day during the Great Depression as a way to raise money and spread awareness about its social service programs.
