National Doughnut Day was established in 1938 by The Salvation Army in honour of the “Doughnut Lassies” who served these delicious treats while providing spiritual and emotional care to the troops on the frontlines during World War 1. It is celebrated annually on the first Friday in June. The Salvation Army recognizes the efforts of everyone who works tirelessly to care for our community and these donuts are a token of their appreciation. Thank to the local chapter of The Salvation Army for visiting our Hospital this morning and showing their appreciation to our staff.
