Today is National Donut Day!

June 1, 2024 By Lisa Grigsby

It’s National Donut Day! The annual celebration always happens on the first Friday in June. The first-ever National Donut Day took place in Chicago in 1938 to honor the history of the Salvation Army’s Donut Lassies. This group of women were sent to France in 1917 to care for wounded soldiers and provide a boost of morale in donut form.

Here’s a list of places where you can score free and discounted donuts

About Lisa Grigsby

Lisa Grigsby is a Special Events Director with over thirty years experience in promotions, event coordination and public relations.

Owning Jokers Comedy Cafe for 20 years taught Lisa to maintain a sense of humor under pressure. She credits Leadership Dayton for exposing her to the amazing assets of the region and Clothes That Work for being her reason she stayed in Dayton. Her proudest accomplishment as a past president of the Miami Valley Restaurant Association was creating Restaurant Week, a twice a year tradition that continues to grow and benefit local charities as well. As a foodie, it's only natural that she continues to promote local restaurateurs with DaytonDining.

As a Dayton Catalyst, her desire to have ONE community calendar and advocate for the amazing assets of the region helped create the vision for the relaunch of DaytonMostMetro, now Dayton 937.com
