Famous Los Angeles donut chain introducing FireAid Donut
Beloved Los Angeles-based donut chain Randy’s Donuts is doing their part to help out in the wildfire recovery efforts by creating a limited-edition donut.
The FireAid Donut, named after the FireAid Benefit Concert taking place in Inglewood at both the Intuit Dome and the Kia Forum on Jan. 30, is a raised donut featuring vanilla icing, red sprinkles and a red heart symbolizing unity and care for those who were impacted by the fires, Randy’s officials said in a media release.
The FireAid Donut itself is available for purchase starting Friday. It costs $5.
All proceeds from FireAid Donut purchases made between Friday and Sunday will go directly to FireAid, but Randy’s isn’t stopping there; through the entire month of February, all participating locations will donate $3 from the purchase of each donut to FireAid.

- Inglewood: 805 W. Manchester Blvd.
