Join New Jersey Isn’t Boring and Purple Glaze for a Saturday Morning Outreach party for New Jersey Isn’t Boring Doughnut, which has proceeds going to two animal charities! Johnny’s Pork-Roll and Coffee Truck, who helped in creating the doughnut, will also be in attendance!
The event will be held on Saturday, June 25th, from 9am to 10am. The first 20 people to purchase the NJIB doughnut during that time will receive a free doughnut of their choosing (excluding the New Jersey Isn’t Boring variety).
