Krispy Kreme giving out a free dozen donuts today for World Kindness Day

There’s nothing kinder than free donuts!

Krispy Kreme is giving out a free dozen donuts in honor of World Kindness Day on Monday, Nov. 13 — but there’s a catch.

Only the first 500 guests visiting Krispy Kreme shops in the United States will get the sweet promotion and walk away with a dozen Original Glazed Donuts for free, no purchase necessary, “to inspire and enable kindness to others.”

Customers are encouraged to not only share the donuts, but to share the kindness by using #KrispyKreme and tagging @krispykreme on social media, according to a press release.

“World Kindness Day is an opportunity to make a positive difference by being generous – from paying it forward to meaningfully connecting with each other,” Dave Skena, global chief brand officer for Krispy Kreme, said in a statement.

“Simple gestures of caring and thanks, including sharing a sweet treat, is a great way to do that.”

He added, “We hope a dozen Original Glazed doughnuts – one doughnut for you and many to share with others – will inspire millions of small acts of kindness.”

The offer is limited to one per guest, in-store and drive-thru only — just head to your nearest participating Krispy Kreme to get your free treats.
