Krispy Kreme stores in the United States are giving away free doughnuts to anyone and everyone who has received their COVID-19 vaccination.

Starting March 22, vaccinated guests can receive a free Original Glazed doughnut at all Krispy Kreme U.S. branches when they show a valid COVID-19 vaccination card. Patrons can drop by at any time, any day — even every day if they wish to do so — through the remainder of 2021.

In addition to thanking vaccinated guests, Krispy Kreme will support health care workers and volunteers involved in administering vaccines with free doughnut deliveries to select vaccination centers across the U.S. in the coming weeks. The company will also offer up to four hours of paid time off to all team members to encourage them to get vaccinated.

“We all want to get COVID-19 behind us as fast as possible and we want to support everyone doing their part to make the country safe by getting vaccinated as soon as the vaccine is available to them,” Dave Skena, Krispy Kreme Chief Marketing Officer, said in a statement.

To cap things off, Krispy Kreme U.S. will be giving away one free medium coffee and a free Original Glazed doughnut every Monday starting March 29 to May 24. No purchase will be necessary.

Elsewhere in food, Benny Blanco and Shake Shack have announced their FRIENDS KEEP SECRETS 2 collab.
