Today, on Giving Tuesday, we’re reminded of the extraordinary power of generosity – and of what’s possible when a community comes together with a shared purpose: bringing joy to kids battling hunger and illness.

At the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation, joy is more than a feeling. It’s a lifeline. It’s a moment of relief during treatment, a warm meal after a long day, a chance for a kid to simply be a kid. None of this would be possible without the people who stand with us year after year.
To Our Franchisees, Brand Employees, Partners and Guests – Thank You
Your commitment fuels our mission. You’ve helped us bring comfort, happiness, and hope to children and families when they need it most.
- Our franchisees continually show up with incredibly meaningful donations that amplify our impact across the country and take time to forge connections with their local nonprofit organizations in communities they serve.
- Our Dunkin’ employees donate their time, passion, and heart – filling every effort with genuine belief in the mission.
- Our partners help us expand programs and reach more children facing unimaginable challenges. For example, Team Success Enterprises in Vero Beach, FL used their grant funding this year to provide family-style Thanksgiving meals to shelters and underserved communities throughout Indian River County, providing hundreds of families with the warmth, dignity and joy of a shared holiday dinner.
- And our guests make every dollar count, proving that small acts of kindness add up to big change.
