Celebrating 11 Years of Making a Difference: Good Citizens Month 2025

This April, the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation marked a special milestone — the 11th year of Good Citizens Month. Thanks to the passion, generosity, and heart of our Dunkin’ franchisees, crew members, and team members across the country, it was another powerful step in our mission to bring joy to children battling hunger.

For more than a decade, Good Citizens Month has marked a time when our Dunkin’ family steps forward to give back. This year was no different. Throughout April, Dunkin’ team members volunteered at more than 70 food banks nationwide, working to fight food insecurity and bring hope to children and families in need. Whether packing meals, serving food, or offering a friendly smile, every volunteer embodied what it truly means to be a Good Citizen. Dunkin’ is about so much more than coffee and donuts — it’s about people helping people, side by side.

This initiative, part of Inspire Brands’ broader Good Citizens Month commitment, shows the power of collective action. While we celebrate the incredible work done over the past 11 years, we know the fight against childhood hunger continues. Good Citizens Month is not just a tradition — it’s a movement we carry forward all year long because no child should ever have to wonder where their next meal will come from.

Here’s to continuing the journey — one act of kindness, one meal, and one child at a time.
