How It All Began
How an Oncologist's Prescription of Donuts Led to a Decade-Long Tradition
TEAM POWDERED DONUT™
Team Powdered Donut grew out of a tradition that its founder, Gary Thompson, has kept in memory of his late wife, Maureen. Maureen passed from metastatic breast cancer on October 21, 2014 after an 11 year on-and-off ordeal with breast cancer. On the anniversary of her passing, Gary has taken powdered donuts to special places in Austin for 11 years, a story you can learn more about here.
Team Powdered Donut is preparing to take this tradition on the road via Airsteam®. This heartfelt journey – a mobile love letter – will span the U.S., stopping at all of the largest cancer centers and other meaningful locations along the way. At every stop, powdered donuts will be shared and stories captured – echoing the spirit of StoryCorps®. And – “One Story. One Moment. One Donut at a time.” – together, we can change everything. One thing at a time.
We don’t have to change everything. We just have to change our one thing. And, if we each indeed change our one thing, then we will have changed everything. – Gary Thompson
