Dunkin’ has long been committed to addressing food insecurity. Through its Roast Hunger Program, they are making a tangible impact. By donating $1 for every large hot coffee purchased by Rewards members, they are able to provide much-needed funds to local food banks. These local food banks, such as Philabundance, the Food Bank of Delaware, and the Food Bank of New Jersey, play a crucial role in feeding those in need. The program not only helps those directly affected by food insecurity but also brings a sense of community and hope. It shows that even a small act like buying a coffee can have a big ripple effect in the fight against hunger.
The partnership with local organizations is a key aspect of Dunkin’s efforts. By working together, they can reach a wider audience and provide more assistance. This collaborative approach ensures that the resources are distributed effectively and that those in need receive the help they deserve. Dunkin’s commitment to making a difference is evident in every aspect of the program, from the donations to the community outreach.
In Philadelphia, where one in six people are food insecure, Dunkin’s program is particularly important. The rising grocery prices have put a strain on families and individuals, making it difficult to put food on the table. Dunkin’s initiative provides a lifeline to those facing food insecurity. It helps to alleviate some of the financial burden and ensures that people have access to nutritious food.
The Senior Field Marketing Manager, Jamie Struwe, highlights the convenience of the program for customers. With many already on the app, ordering a coffee becomes a simple and seamless process. This makes it easy for customers to contribute to a good cause without any added hassle. It shows that everyone can play a part in making a difference, no matter how small their action may seem.
During the campaign running through December 15, Dunkin’s is making a significant impact. The donations are pouring in, helping to support local food banks and the communities they serve. It is a time when people come together to show their support for those in need. Dunkin’s is not only providing financial assistance but also raising awareness about food insecurity.
As a partner in the annual 6abc Telethon, Dunkin’ is further amplifying its message. On Giving Tuesday, December 3, at 4 p.m., people have the opportunity to learn more about how they can help a neighbor and make a difference. This collaborative effort brings together the community and shows the power of collective action in addressing social issues.
