Dunkin’ Iced Coffee Day Returns to Lubbock with a Cool Way to Help Kids in Need

Coffee lovers in the 806, get ready to sip for a cause! The start of summer just got sweeter – and cooler – as Dunkin’ brings back its beloved Iced Coffee Day on Wednesday, June 18. For one day only, every iced coffee or cold brew purchased at participating Lubbock Dunkin’ locations will spark a little joy beyond your cup—because $1 from every icy drink sold goes directly to the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation.

What is Dunkin' Iced Coffee Day?

Now in its fourth year, Dunkin’ Iced Coffee Day has become one of the most feel-good caffeine runs of the year. Last year alone, the event raised over $2.1 million nationwide, helping fund everything from art therapy to facility dogs and even prom celebrations for kids in hospitals. That money goes straight back into local communities—including right here in West Texas—supporting kids battling hunger or illness through organizations that deliver joy when it’s needed most.

Victor Carvalho, Dunkin’ Franchisee and Joy in Childhood Foundation Board Chairman, put it best: “Drink joy in, we’ll give joy out.”

How You Can Participate

And this year, there’s a new way to help out. If you can’t make it to the drive-thru, Dunkin’ is also donating 100% of profits from ShopDunkin.com on June 18, while supplies last. Yep, you can stock up on fan-favorite merch—like their sold-out duvet covers or even their wedding collection—and support a great cause all at once.
