Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Are On The House For First Responders Tomorrow

While your local stationery shop may not offer official greeting cards for National First Responders Day, the brilliant minds at Krispy Kreme have come up with a great way to thank the folks who help us when we really need it.

The beloved Southern chain is taking the opportunity to celebrate first responders by offering firefighters, paramedics/EMTs, law enforcement officers, emergency operators, dispatchers, and search and rescue personnel a free Original Glazed Doughnut and a fresh-brewed hot or iced coffee on Friday, October 28 (a.k.a. National First Responders Day).

"It's our pleasure to show our appreciation for first responders with a free treat on National First Responders Day," Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer for Krispy Kreme, said in a statement. "We are thankful for all those who protect and serve communities across America."

First responders just need to roll up to their local Krispy Kreme (in store or drive-thru) and present a valid ID or badge to redeem this small token of appreciation for their hard, important work.
