Duck Donuts To Offer Free Doughnut On June 1 In Rockville

ROCKVILLE, MD — Duck Donuts is celebrating National Donut Day with a free doughnut offer for customers on Friday, June 1.

Visitors will receive one bare, cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar doughnut, no purchase necessary. In addition, fans will also receive an exclusive National Donut Day coupon for "Buy One Donut, Get One Free," redeemable until June 17.

“National Donut Day is easily one of our favorite holidays to celebrate with not only our fans, but with the Salvation Army, allowing many of our locations to honor the relationships they have with their local chapter,” Russ DiGilio, founder and CEO of Duck Donuts Franchising Company, said in a statement. “We are looking forward to serving our warm and fresh classic donuts all day with the donut lovers in the communities we serve!”

National Donut Day, which is traditionally celebrated on the first Friday of June, was established in 1938 by the Chicago Salvation Army to honor women who served donuts to soldiers during World War I, Duck Donuts said.

To spread the excitement of the holiday throughout the community, stores will drop off donuts to The Salvation Army and other local businesses, schools, police stations, fire departments and more.

The store is located at 1327 Rockville Pike.
