Stan’s Donuts and Coffee is teaming up with Hope Always Foundation to bring consistent, meaningful moments of appreciation directly into hospitals—fresh coffee, donuts and breakfast—delivered as a simple gesture of gratitude for the people doing deeply demanding work every day.
Fresh donuts and coffee are delivered to nurses, caregivers and hospital staff who dedicate their lives to caring for the city’s patients—especially on the hardest day of the week to be away from their own families.
The first-ever "Stan-Day" launches at LaRabida Children’s Hospital, powered by the nearby Stan’s Donuts & Coffee location at 5225 S Harper Ct in Hyde Park.

Stan's declares the first Sunday of each month is officially Stan-Day, a recurring community appreciation program honoring Chicago’s "Healthcare Heroes".

La Rabida Children’s Hospital is the ideal launching point, located less than 3 miles from Stan’s Hyde Park location. Sharing the same community fabric allows for a familiar, ongoing relationship with LaRabida’s staff.

Stan-Days starts at LaRabida and slowly expands to select hubs, turning Stan’s locations near Chicago hospitals into a consistent place of appreciation for the healthcare workers who keep the system running while Hope Always Foundation entertains kids with Warrior Channel!
