Krispy Kreme Offering Sweet deal for Blood Donors

The donut chain is trying to help as the U.S. faces its worst blood shortage in over a decade.

The chain is offering free donuts this week to people who donate blood. To get a free dozen…customers have to order in-person and show their donation sticker. They can also confirm their donation on the red cross blood donor app. Since march of 2020, the Red Cross says it has seen a 10 percent drop in donations. Factors include canceled blood drives, staffing limitations, weather-related closures and of course, a surge in covid-19 cases.
