National Donut Day was established in 1938 by the Chicago Salvation Army to honor the "Donut Lassies" who served donuts to soldiers during World War I. The day also serves as a fundraiser for the Salvation Army's social services programs.
Host a company-wide donut breakfast or coffee break to bring employees together and boost morale. You could also support a local business by partnering with a neighborhood donut shop to offer special discounts or promotions to your customers or employees.
If your team is remote, consider sending a digital cash gift card like Giftly so your employees can buy a donut wherever they live. Then get everybody together on a videoconferencing call and enjoy some social time together.
This is also a great opportunity to offer to match donations from your employees to the Salvation Army and support the nonprofit.

Father's Day was first celebrated in 1910 in Washington state but didn't become a national holiday until 1972. The day honors fathers, fatherhood, and the influence of fathers in society.

Father’s Day is also a good time to connect with your customers. Promote your company values by sharing stories or photos of employees with their fathers or children on social media
If you’re an in-person company, you could host a father-child event or activity to strengthen family bonds and promote work-life balance.

Make a point on this holiday to support Black-owned businesses in your community by partnering with them or promoting their products or services.
