Dunkinโ€™ Donuts and the Joy in Childhood Foundation spread some cheer at Diamond Childrenโ€™s hospital.

JOY in Childhood Foundation spread โ€˜Joyโ€™ at Bannerโ€“ Diamond Childrenโ€™s Medical.

  • Dunkinโ€™ Donuts: Tucson franchisees of Dunkinโ€™ volunteered their time to spread joy through Banner-Diamond Childrenโ€™s Medical Center in Tucson by passing out doughnuts, milk and gifts to patients and their families. Tucson Dunkinโ€™ franchisees along with mascot Sprinkles also went into patient rooms passing out custom Dunkinโ€™ gifts to spread cheer and share more information on 200 Starlight Gowns donations made to Diamond Childrenโ€™s this year. The Tucson franchisees were joined by the Joy in Childhood Foundation โ€” the charitable foundation supported by the Dunkinโ€™ Donuts and Baskin-Robbins brands.
  • Pima Federal Credit Union: Pima Federal Credit Unionโ€™s seventh annual Golf Classic raised $50,000. The event hosted 137 golfers and included a live raffle and silent auction. Pima Federal contributed an additional $1,000 resulting in a total amount raised of $51,000. Three local organizations were selected as the beneficiaries of the signature fundraising event: Literacy Connects, Southern Arizona Law Enforcement Foundation, and Greater Tucson Fire Foundation. Each organization will receive a $17,000 donation to help provide vital resources and support in the community. Since the Golf Classic was established in 2013, $417,000 has been raised to directly benefit our community.
