SYRACUSE, NY; – Dunkin’ announced the results of its recent Iced Coffee Day campaign with a donation of $36,000 to Food Bank of Central New York.
During the one-day event on May 22, Dunkin’ franchisees donated $1 from every cup of Iced Coffee sold at participating Dunkin’ restaurants in Central New York to Food Bank of Central New York. Iced Coffee Day has generated more than $186,000 for Central New York charities since 2012.
“Dunkin’ is thrilled to continue to support Food Bank of Central New York through our annual Iced Coffee Day program. This donation is a direct reflection of the community support engendered by the Food Bank, an organization so vital to families in need,” said Dunkin’ Integrated Marketing Manager Eric Stensland. “I would like to thank all of our guests who joined us on Iced Coffee Day to help raise funds for Food Bank of Central New York.”
