Thanksgiving may be over, but Dunkin’ is saying “thanks” and giving free coffee to Floridians on Giving Tuesday.
All day on Tuesday, 11/29, Dunkin’ will be celebrating Giving Tuesday in Florida. For supporting each other and our communities during Hurricane Ian recovery, Dunkin’ is raising up a free “Cup of Thanks”.
Erica Roomy is Dunkin’s Field Marketing Manager. She said in a statement: “This Giving Tuesday, we are sharing a cup of thanks with the people of Florida who have given so much of their time and resources to help their neighbors recover. It has been amazing to see the resilience of Florida residents. This is Dunkin’s small way of showing our support to those who have gone above and beyond to give so much to others in need.”
The offer tomorrow is valid for a free medium hot or iced coffee.

In addition to the “Cup of Thanks,” the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation is also making a major donation. They’re giving over $100,000 in grants to local food banks across the state of Florida. Throughout the month of December these grants will help charitable organizations to “help them bring joy to kids battling hunger this holiday season.”

How To Donate Safe On Giving Tuesday
We have Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday and Giving Tuesday and if you want to give, make sure you donate safe.
This time of year, it’s all about the spending. The gifts, the decor, the food..but it’s also a good time to donate money to causes you care about.
According to the Better Business Bureau, since 2012, Giving Tuesday has helped raise more than $1 billion for charity. But any time you’re giving money to anyone, you want to make sure it’s going to the right place. And of course, because a lot of charitable giving is done online, the scammers will be looking for their next victim.
The BBB has set up a website specifically to combat this problem. You can visit give.org and type in the name of a charity and it will pull up info to show it’s legitimacy. For example, I searched American Red Cross. Not only did the website show that it is a BBB Accredited Charity, but also information like their purpose, programs, fundraising, etc.
Art Taylor is the president and CEO of BBB WGA. He said “The evaluations we provide give donors insight into charity trustworthiness, helping them make wiser giving decisions. Holiday donations can make a real impact. Therefore, it’s critical that donors’ hard-earned dollars go to charities that operate ethically.”
