When is a forecast of blizzards good for British Columbia? On Thursday, July 26, when the community comes together for the annual DQ Miracle Treat Day, supporting the Children's Miracle Network and BC Children's Hospital.
During Miracle Treat Day, Dairy Queens from across B.C. will donate proceeds from every Blizzard sold to BC Children's Hospital, a member of the Children's Miracle Network - a non-profit organization dedicated to saving and improving the lives of children by raising funds for children's hospitals.
"We are grateful that Dairy Queen organizes the Miracle Treat Day every year to benefit B.C.'s kids, and children across Canada and the US," said Teri Nicholas, president and CEO of BC Children's Hospital. "The funds that Miracle Treat Day raises will help our caregivers meet the urgent health needs of children in BC and the Yukon."
Last year, participating Dairy Queen locations in BC raised more than $348,735 for BC Children's Hospital. Dairy Queen has been a supporter of the Children's Miracle Network since 1984, raising more than $90 million to date.
