Dunkin’ and UNC men’s basketball coach Roy Williams are teaming up to raise money for UNC Children’s Hospital and Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina with the Ol’ Roy Donut
The Ol’ Roy Donut sports a Carolina blue icing drizzled atop Coach Williams’ favorite Dunkin’ donut, the Boston Crème. It will be sold in all participating restaurants throughout North Carolina, with 50 cents from each donut sale between March 14th to 27th, 2021, going to the local charities.
“I am grateful for the opportunity to team with Dunkin’ to provide financial assistance to these worthy causes through the sale of this custom Boston Crème. It’s a fun way for fans of all teams to support the work at the Children’s Hospital and Food Bank,” said coach Roy Williams.
UNC Children’s Hospital is a top-tier academic medical center dedicated to providing care for all children in North Carolina regardless of socio-economic status, background, or language preference. The Hospital serves children from all 100 counties in North Carolina and from around the world, with many patients travel great distances to UNC Children’s for specialty care.
Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina strives through education, advocacy, and partnerships to eliminate hunger by the solicitation and distribution of food. Last year, Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina distributed over 70 million pounds of food and household items to over 800 hunger feeding agencies including emergency pantries, soup kitchens, senior programs, shelters and low-income daycares.
Leveraging the Ol’ Roy Donut will help in efforts to feed the over 553,000 people in North Carolina who are struggling with food insecurity including almost 188,000 children.
