'Tis (nearly) the season of giving, which is why Voodoo Doughnut has rolled out a charitable new creation called the 'Pie, Pie My Darling' donut.
The Pie, Pie My Darling donut is part of a charitable campaign launched by Voodoo Doughnut, in partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters. The Pie, Pie My Darling donut is a seasonal creation inspired by blueberry pie. The fluffy filled donut boasts a blueberry stuffing on the inside and a dusting of cinnamon sugar on the outside.
For each donut sold, a portion of the proceeds will go directly to Big Brothers Big Sisters, which is an organization dedicated to youth mentorship. As Cynthia Thompson of Big Brothers Big Sisters Columbia Northwest explains, "When customers purchase the new Pie, Pie My Darling doughnut, they are helping Big Brothers Big Sisters recruit more volunteers and build impactful, long-lasting mentoring relationships that empower youth to reach their potential."
