Dunkin’ of Abilene has announced that it will be hosting its “Coffee for Champions” fundraiser on Friday, August 20. When you make donations to the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics Texas (SOTX), you can get a coupon for a free donut.
Local law enforcement will be on hand to greet guests and take cash donations for SOTX at Dunkin’. Guests can also donate by credit card in the drive-thru or at the counter. Donations can be made between opening (6:00 AM) and 12:00 PM at Dunkin’s Abilene location (2901 S 4th St).
“Our local Abilene Dunkin’ franchisees are thrilled to team up with Special Olympics Texas,” said Shannon Durkin, Dunkin’ Field Marketing Manager. “We hope that by providing guests with a free Donut, Dunkin’ will encourage the Abilene community to stop by and help Special Olympics Texas change the lives of local kids through sports, health, and more.”
