Spreading Joy in the Community

We had the pleasure of awarding a $3,000 Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation Matching Grant to Helping Mamas Inc, which will go towards providing baby formula and snack packs for children in East Tennessee.

We’re delighted to have provided a matching grant to the Collins Children’s Home through the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation. This grant will support the children’s home in feeding the kids in their care for at least three months.

Last week was a celebration filled with gratitude and caffeine as we honored the incredible teachers in the Knoxville area and beyond for Teacher Appreciation Week!

We proudly served over 450 dozen donuts and 400 Boxes of Joe, ensuring these superheroes stayed energized throughout these final days of the school year.

Yesterday marked our final volunteer day for Inspire Brands’ Good Citizen Month 2024!

Last week we had the privilege of delivering TWO “Good Citizens Month” grants from the Dunkin’ Joy In Childhood Foundation.

On Monday we visited our friends at Nourish Food Bank and left them speechless with a $50,000 SURPRISE Good Citizens Month 10th Anniversary grant. Then our 48 volunteers from Bluemont and Catalano Management, LLC painted, cleaned gutters and reorganized most of the canned goods in the warehouse.
On Thursday we presented a $25,000 Feeding America Grant to the Community Food Bank of Central Alabama. We sorted food and packed weekly boxes for more than 12,000 meals.

We had the honor of presenting a grant check from the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation to Safe Haven Family Shelter.

This week, we volunteered in two more of our markets, Chattanooga and Knoxville, Tennessee. In Chattanooga, our team lent a hand at the Chattanooga Area Food Bank, packing over 5 pallets of emergency food boxes, more than 2800 cans of baked beans, and assembling 896 snack bags destined for children in the surrounding areas. The following day in Knoxville at the Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee, our dedication continued as we packed 11,680 pounds of macaroni and baked beans, poised to feed thousands across Knoxville and neighboring counties. Additionally, our Knoxville team had the honor of presenting Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee with a $30,000 grant from the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation!
