As a small token of glaze-covered gratitude to the health care workers on the frontlines of coronavirus, Krispy Kreme is offering them free doughnuts.
The nationwide campaign kicked off on Monday and will continue weekly at locations across the country, including here in Georgia.
"Taking care of ourselves and each other never has been more important. Getting through this together by staying apart seems unnatural," Krispy Kreme wrote in a press release. "But even now ... there can be joy. It can bring and keep us 'together' in this challenging, disruptive time."
Health care workers interested in picking up a free dozen of the original glazed donuts can do so in the drive-thru of any store location.
"Just go to a Krispy Kreme drive-thru, tell us what you need and show us your employer badge. That's it. Pick up some free dozens on the way to work for you and your colleagues, or maybe a free dozen on your way home to family after a long shift," the press release reads.
The campaign kicked off this week, which marks National Doctors’ Day and will continue through National Nurses Week, May 6-12.
