Children treated at Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation to benefit from net proceeds of all Blizzard Treats on Thursday, October 28th

On Thursday, October 28th, DQ fans in North Battleford are encouraged to continue the 19-year tradition of making miracles happen for sick children and their families by visiting their local DQ to celebrate Miracle Treat Day. Net proceeds from every Blizzard Treat purchased at participating DQ stores in North Battleford will be donated to Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation, one of 12 Children’s Miracle Network member hospitals across Canada. What’s raised local stays local, so every dollar donated from DQ stores will go directly to the children’s hospital in each community.

On average, 35,000 children enter a Children’s Miracle Network hospital in North America each week. That’s 5,000 per day or 62 per minute. DQ employees, franchisees, volunteers and stakeholders come together throughout the year to help raise funds that allow children’s hospitals to provide the best care possible. Since the partnership began 37 years ago in 1984, DQ has become a top contributor to Children’s Miracle Network, with over $44 million raised to date in Canada alone.

Media are invited to attend Miracle Treat Day at their local Dairy Queen.
