A delightful gathering of dessert enthusiasts took place on Sunday at Norfolk Hall, where the 5th Annual CLT Donut Festival not only indulged attendees with endless treats but also highlighted an important mission. The event served as a platform to support the Save A Nut Foundation, an organization dedicated to increasing awareness about testicular cancer and providing resources for those affected.

The festival offered a variety of sweet delights from local bakeshops, alongside refreshing beverages ranging from craft cocktails to health-conscious options. Beyond the sugary offerings, visitors explored unique artisanal products such as custom glassware, gourmet sauces, skincare items, and even accessories for pets. This vibrant market atmosphere attracted numerous attendees who enjoyed both the culinary experiences and the opportunity to contribute to a meaningful cause.

Inspired by his own journey, Mark Borja, the President and Founder of the foundation, emphasized the importance of community support. After overcoming his battle with cancer in 2017, he recognized the lack of guidance and resources available to young men facing similar challenges. By organizing this event, Borja aims to empower others and foster solidarity within the Charlotte community. Through collective efforts, participants can make a significant impact on raising awareness and providing essential support for those in need.
