CANTON, MA — With the holidays fast approaching, Dunkin’ Donuts is brewing a little extra joy for its guests and communities throughout the busy weeks ahead, serving up its signature hot coffee for free at select Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants across the country. To celebrate the joy and warmth of the season, for one weekday between Monday, December 12 and Friday, December 23, nearly 30 Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants somewhere in the U.S. will offer 500 guests a free medium hot coffee, served in the brand’s festive holiday cups featuring the word “JOY” (timing varies by location).
Additionally, in each market where a Dunkin’ Donuts restaurant is serving free coffee, the brand will donate $1,000 to a local organization aligned with the Joy in Childhood Foundation’s mission to bring joy to children whose lives are affected by health issues or hunger. Through the generosity of Dunkin’ Donuts and Baskin-Robbins franchisees, employees, vendors and guests, the Joy in Childhood Foundation raises funds to support partnerships with children’s hospitals, food banks, and nonprofit organizations directly committed to serving sick and hungry kids. In total, Dunkin’ Donuts will donate $15,000 in December as part of the “Brewing Joy” program.
The program begins in Chicago on December 12 with the first two Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants that will be “Brewing Joy.” Guests can follow the Dunkin’ Donuts blog for updates on participating restaurants and dates where guests can keep energized with a free medium hot coffee.
Dunkin’ Donuts is also spreading joy throughout the holiday season with its #DDCoffeeJoySweepstakes photo and video sweepstakes. Beginning December 5, and continuing through December 23, each week Dunkin’ Donuts will provide a new holiday topic or activity, with the challenge for fans to post a photo or video to Instagram using the hashtag #DDCoffeeJoySweepstakes, showing how Dunkin’ coffee plays a part in this holiday activity. A new theme will be presented each week, with this first week’s theme being “pretty lights.” Each week, five entrants will receive a month’s supply of Dunkin’ Donuts coffee, and one grand prize winner will receive a year’s worth of Dunkin’ Donuts coffee. No purchase necessary, legal U.S. residents, 18+. Void where prohibited. For additional terms and conditions related to Dunkin’ Donuts’ #DDCoffeeJoySweepstakes, visit http://www.ddsweeps.com.
