Pouring smiles nationwide: Dunkin’® Iced Coffee Day returns on May 27 

Press release from Dunkin’

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Dunkin’ is bringing purpose to pouring iced coffee with the return of Dunkin’ Iced Coffee Day on Wednesday, May 27. For one day only, guests can support a greater cause with their coffee order, as $1 from every iced coffee and cold brew sold at participating locations nationwide will be donated to the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation, whose mission is to bring joy to kids battling hunger or illness. 

On the heels of the unofficial start of summer – the quintessential season for iced coffee – Dunkin’ is once again transforming a daily ritual into a meaningful moment. From bold brews to sweet sips topped with Cold Foam, every iced coffee order on Dunkin’ Iced Coffee Day delivers more than just refreshment. Now in its fifth year, the annual tradition continues to serve as a powerful way to give back, helping support children and families in local communities nationwide. The funds raised on Dunkin’ Iced Coffee Day benefit pediatric health and hunger relief organizations aligned with the Foundation’s mission to bring joy to kids when and where it’s needed most. 

“What starts as part of your daily routine can quickly become something meaningful on Dunkin’ Iced Coffee Day,” said Victor Carvalho, Dunkin’ Franchisee and Joy in Childhood Foundation Board Co-Chairman. “When you stop in for your coffee, you’re helping us turn everyday moments into joyful opportunities to uplift children and families in the communities we serve.” 

In 2025, Dunkin’ Iced Coffee Day generated over $2 million to support its Signature Program Grants, Dogs for Joy®, Dunkin’ Prom™, Dunkin’ Connecting Joy™, and Dunkin’ Joyful Space™, as well as its Regional Grants. 

Dunkin’ Iced Coffee Day brings together guests, franchisees, and communities to make a meaningful impact in neighborhoods nationwide.
