Omg Decadent Donuts Raise Funds For Charity
CAIRNS-based business OMG Decadent Donuts FNQ is running a “Donut Drive” with a difference to raise funds for local charity COUCH.
The initiative hopes to raise $5,000 between now and Christmas, and that’s a ‘hole lotta love’.
Spokesperson for COUCH (Cairns Organisation United for Cancer Health), Events and Partnerships Officer Bec Dent said they were grateful for the support.
“We’re so grateful for the generous support of OMG Donuts,” Ms Dent said.
“The money raised through their “Donut Drive” will go directly to the COUCH Cancer Wellness Centre and help us to provide support, advice and services to locals who have been diagnosed with cancer, as well as their carers, close friends and family.
“We can’t continue to make a difference in the lives of Far North Queenslanders impacted by cancer without the support of humans and businesses like OMG Donuts, who believe in what we do and care a ‘hole’ lot.”
Donuts FNQ owner Ray Burton said they were proud to fundraise for COUCH.
“We love supporting COUCH and want to raise as much as we can for them; a donut drive is a great way to raise funds,” Mr Burton said.
“A normal donut drive makes a lot of extra work for volunteers to coordinate both ordering and collection but our ‘OMG! D-Drive’ initiative involves an online portal where people can order their donuts and choose the date and time for collection that best suits them.”
From now until December 21, OMG Donuts FNQ will donate $1 for every donut ordered through their website page www.omgdecadentdonuts.com/far-north-qld/.
“Now is the time for the spirit of giving.” Mr Burton said.
“People can participate by pre-ordering just one donut or do even more good by ordering for larger events.”
OMG donuts are an all-natural, low allergen and safe eating option for those with dietary requirements such as food allergies or intolerances, as well as tasting amazing for everyone.
