What is National Doughnut Day?<\/h2>

The backstory:<\/p>

National Doughnut Day was established in Chicago in 1938 to honor the Salvation Army’s “Donut Lassies.”\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

During World War I, the “Donut Lassies” provided an important emotional boost to U.S. soldiers. In 1917, approximately 250 Salvation Army volunteers traveled to France to set up “small huts” near the front lines.\u00a0<\/p>

These volunteers distributed clothes, supplies and baked goods.<\/p>

“Despite discovering that serving baked goods would be difficult considering the conditions of the huts and the limited rations, two officers \u2014 Ensign Margaret Sheldon and Adjutant Helen Purviance \u2014 began frying donuts,” the Salvation Army\u00a0said in a post<\/u>.<\/p>

The doughnuts were “a taste of home” for the American soldiers on the battlefield, according to the organization. The “Donut Lassies” served up to 9,000 doughnuts to the troops each day.<\/p>

More than a century after the debut of the “Donut Lassies,” The Salvation Army continues to serve doughnuts (and other meals) to those in need, according to their website.\u00a0<\/p>
