DQ Blizzard purchases Thursday will benefit children's hospitals

Dairy Queen and Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals are celebrating DQ Miracle Treat Day on Thursday, when $1 or more of every Blizzard Treat purchased at participating Dairy Queen locations during store hours will be donated to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, including Akron Children’s Hospital in Akron and Akron Children’s Hospital Mahoning Valley.

All donations raised by Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals stay in the communities in which they are raised to support local children.

In 2012, Dairy Queen raised more than $69,000 for Akron Children’s Hospital.
