More specifically, it will be a day of Dairy Queen Blizzard Treats to benefit area children. For the seventh year in a row, Dairy Queen’s Miracle Treat Day invites people to come out to area stores, enjoy an ice cream treat and raise funds for services and equipment for hospitalized children at Beaumont Children’s Hospital.
Miracle Treat Day benefits children at Beaumont Children’s Hospital
Participating Dairy Queen stores in Metro Detroit will donate proceeds from each Blizzard Treat sold that day to the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals benefitting Beaumont Children’s Hospital in southeast Michigan.
“Miracle Treat Day continues to grow every year and participating in this event is a terrific way to cope with a hot Michigan summer,” says Tom McGannon, vice president, Beaumont Foundation. “We appreciate our DQ partners and their ongoing support to raise funds to help Beaumont Children’s Hospital kids through the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.”
Miracle Treat Day 2012 raised more than $5.5 million for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals in local communities throughout the U.S. and Canada. The Dairy Queen system is one of the top 10 contributors to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals raising nearly $100 million since 1984.
