Dunkin’ and Make-A-Wish Northeast New York today celebrated the launch of the Make-A-Wish Donut charitable campaign. A communitywide program designed to help make the wishes of local children come true, this year marks the first time it will take place in the Capital Region.
Now through September 15, guests who donate $1 to Make-A-Wish at participating Dunkin’ restaurants in the Capital Region will receive a free specially crafted Make-A-Wish Donut, while supplies last. All proceeds will benefit Make-A-Wish Northeast New York.
The Make-A-Wish Donut campaign is expanding to Dunkin’ restaurants in the Capital Region after more than a decade of success in partnership with Dunkin’ in Central New York and the Southern Tier.
“Dunkin’ is pleased to introduce the Make-A-Wish Donut campaign to the Capital Region,” said local Dunkin’ Franchisee Natasha Teixeira. “I encourage everyone to enjoy a special treat while supporting an organization that works day-in and day-out to help make the wishes of Capital Region children come true.”
The specialty donut, which is topped with white icing and blue sprinkles in honor of Make-A-Wish, will be available at participating Dunkin’ restaurants in the Capital Region for a limited time.
“The Dunkin’ Make-A-Wish Donut campaign exemplifies the power of community partnerships in action,” said Make-A-Wish Northeast New York President & CEO Jamie Hathaway. “With every Make-A-Wish Donut purchase, our neighbors are helping to create life-changing experiences for kids right here in Northeast New York. Thank you to everyone at Dunkin’ that came together to make this fundraiser possible this year.”
Make-A-Wish Northeast New York creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses throughout a 15-county region of New York State. For more information on Make-A-Wish Northeast New York and to learn how you can become involved visit wish.org/neny.
