The Salvation Army established National Doughnut Day in 1938 to honour the army’s ‘doughnut lassies’, who made history when they risked their lives to raise the spirits and fuel hope by serving thousands of soldiers during WWI, in part by delivering doughnuts and other sweet treats to those in the war
