It's National Donut Day!!

Every year on the first Friday of June, Canadians honour the doughnut and the Salvation Army Lassies by celebrating National Doughnut or Donut Day. During WWI, the ladies who served doughnuts to troops were known as Salvation Army Lassies.

The first "Salvation Army Doughnut" was served by Salvation Army ladies in 1917. During WWI, the Salvation Army Lassies fought on the front lines of Europe. The home-cooked meals provided by these brave volunteers bolstered the troops' morale.

Doughnuts were frequently baked in oil inside the metal helmets of American soldiers. At the time, American infantrymen were referred to as "doughboys." The phrase is usually spelt "donut."On this day, several bakeries and coffee shops in the United States give doughnuts to their customers.




HISTORY OF NATIONAL DOUGHNUT DAY

To remember the ladies who fed doughnuts to soldiers during World War I, the Salvation Army founded National Doughnut Day in 1938. This day began as a fundraiser for the Salvation Army in Chicago. During the Great Depression, their 1938 fundraiser attempted to help the impoverished.

For many years, humans have been plundering the waters. Pollution, the degradation of aquatic habitats, overfishing, and ocean acidification are all well-known examples of exploitation. The purpose of World Oceans Day is to reduce irresponsible ocean exploitation and to put in place long-term ocean protection measures. Several measures, like the elimination of plastics, the adoption of strong environmental policies, and the implementation of rules and regulations to support sustainable seafood choices, are successful approaches to protecting precious natural resources such as seas.
