ALTON, MO — Get ready, Alton! This Friday, March 28th, something sweet is rolling into town — and it’s all for a great cause.
The Emergency Donut Vehicle with Hurts Donuts will be parking in the Harps parking lot (605 US-160) starting at 11 a.m. and will stay until they sell out. This isn’t just any donut truck — it’s loaded with some of the biggest, most indulgent treats you’ve ever seen.
Even better? This visit is part of a charity fundraiser benefiting families affected by the recent tornadoes, turning donuts into direct community support.
Here’s a taste of what you can expect:
– Double-stuffed long johns
– Eight flavors of giant cinnamon rolls — including strawberry cheesecake, caramel apple pie, cherry cheesecake, blueberry, lemon, and more!
– Chocolate-covered strawberry donuts and strawberries & cream donuts
– Maple bacon bars and all the fan-favorite classic donuts
– Massive fritters
– Jumbo homemade cookies — chocolate chip, oatmeal cream pies, and fudge rounds
– COOKIE DOUGH DONUTS in four irresistible flavors: chocolate chip, sugar cookie, birthday cake cookie dough, and peanut butter monster dough!
This is like the Black Friday of donuts — line up early! Some popular items will be in limited supply and are expected to go fast.
If you or your friends need dairy-free or gluten-free options, they are available by pre-order only and must be placed by 5 p.m. Thursday by calling 417-368-0279. Allergy-friendly donuts are kept separate for safety.
The organizers say the amount of product they bring depends on how many shares the original event post on their Facebook page gets — so the more people share and spread the word, the more sweet treats they’ll load up!
And yes — they’re accepting cash, cards, and (jokingly) cute puppies.
Whether you’re a donut lover or just want to support tornado-impacted families, this is one delicious event you won’t want to miss!
