For children battling illness, the anticipation of summer just got a little brighter thanks to funding from the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation.

New funding marks the third round of large-scale funding from the Foundation, one year after the first, as the need for hunger relief remains higher than ever as the COVID-19 crisis continues.

This latest round of funding follows closely on the heels of the Foundation’s $1.25 million in grants distributed in March to support health and hunger relief organizations during the early days of the pandemic. With these newest grants, the Foundation will be focusing on non-profit organizations dedicated to the support of underserved communities that have been the hardest hit.

Toting your favorite Dunkin’ beverage this summer just got more fun thanks to Dunkin’ and PopSockets, maker of expandable phone grips and lifestyle accessories. Today, Dunkin’ and PopSockets announced that new Dunkin’-inspired PopThirst cup sleeves, complete with donut- and coffee-themed PopTops are available now.

New Dunkin’ inspired plush dog toys from BARK will be available starting next week at participating Dunkin’ restaurants nationwide when guests make a donation to the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation.

At a time when many people are seeking fun, new ways to stay in touch with friends and family and stay active, the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation today announced its first-ever Dunkin’ JOY Run.
