Planned2Give, a Dayton non-profit organization that raises funds for other local non-profits, also hosted the Dayton Donut Fest On Tour earlier this year in February, a similarly organized, self-guided event throughout the Miami Valley.
“A lot of people said that what they loved about it, was that it was a great family thing to do,” said Lisa Grigsby, owner of Planned2Give, “and they were going to explore new places that they normally wouldn’t ever go to. And because it has a charity component, … people felt good about doing it.”
