Krispy Kreme makes it easy to be kind—and sweet, too.

The donut chain will give away a dozen glazed donuts to the first 500 customers at participating locations on World Kindness Day on Wednesday, Krispy Kreme announced.

“World Kindness Day is a reminder that we can all have a positive impact on people’s lives, even through small gestures like sharing a sweet treat,” said Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer, Krispy Kreme. “We hope that every dozen Original Glazed Donuts we give away will enable and inspire dozens of small acts of kindness.”

No purchase is necessary to receive the free dozen donuts, according to the press release. The offer is valid both in-store and in the drive-thru at participating Krispy Kremes.
