Story

Sweet Treats with a Purpose The Other Side Donuts isn’t just a donut shop — it’s a movement. Every donut you enjoy helps change a life. We are part of The Other Side Village, a growing community in Salt Lake City that provides homes and hope for men and women emerging from chronic homelessness, addiction, and incarceration. The Village is built on a simple but powerful belief: housing alone won’t solve homelessness — community will. At The Other Side Village, residents — called Villagers — rebuild their lives through connection, accountability, and purpose. They learn valuable life and job skills through social enterprises like The Other Side Donuts, where each donut sold supports both personal growth and community sustainability. Our team is made up of people who have overcome incredible challenges. Through hard work and mentorship, they are now leaders, creators, and examples of what redemption looks like. Every glaze, topping, and flavor is crafted with the same care and dedication that’s rebuilding lives just a few miles away. So when you take a bite, know that you’re not just enjoying an extraordinary donut — you’re helping someone find their way to “The Other Side.”
