Salvation Army One Day Blitz at Krispy Kreme a success!

WILMINGTON, NC, (WWAY) — It’s the time for giving!

Once again, WWAY partnered with Krispy Kreme, the Salvation Army, and 103.7 The Bone to help the needy in our community.

Donations came pouring in throughout the day as dozens of fresh doughnuts were being prepared inside for those who brought at lease five non-perishable items.

Major Richard Watts with the Salvation Army said at least 16,000 pounds of food was donated today. The manager of Krispy Kreme told us that they gave out more than seventeen hundred coupons for a free dozen donuts. More than 20,000 doughnuts were given away Thursday evening.
