Local Dunkin' Donuts MA and Southern NH Franchisees Present Check to Alzheimer's Association for $37,045

Thanks to the generosity from guests, local Dunkin’ Donuts franchisees in Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire are proud to announce a donation to the Alzheimer’s Association for the 7th consecutive year stemming from its annual “Purple with a Purpose” campaign. At the original Dunkin’ Donuts restaurant in Quincy, MA, Dunkin’ Donuts franchisee Victor Carvalho and brand representatives presented a check to the Alzheimer’s Association for $37,045. The donation will go towards research and essential support programs and services.

Beginning in October 2015, guests who donated $10 at participated Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants received a “Purple with a Purpose” Reusable Travel Mug that honored a free hot or iced coffee every Sunday for the remainder of the year. Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire Dunkin’ Donuts franchisees and guests have raised more than $170,264 for the campaign since 2009 and understand the need to raise awareness for this important cause.
