Along with satisfying your sweet tooth, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to FareShare. The food rescue charity cooks 5,000 free meals a day using food that would otherwise be wasted. These dishes are prepared and distributed by volunteers out of Australia’s largest charity kitchen.

Kooinda Brewery will be providing one of the special beers to pair with the treats. Since donuts saturate the palate with sugar, they’ve created a brew with caramel and toffee notes to perfectly compliment the sweetness. You can also expect an Aperol cocktail with pomegranate liquor, grapefruit, lemon, and egg white with a rose petal garnish, among others. Need I say more?

Support local. Eat donuts. It’s that easy.
