IHOP Restaurant Tradition Returns for Second Year to Raise Funds for Children’s Miracle Network
In celebration of National Pancake Day on March 3, participating IHOP® restaurants will once again offer guests a free short stack of their famous buttermilk pancakes, in the hopes that they will pay it forward with a voluntary donation to the Children’s Miracle Network member hospital in their community. This year, Miss Universe Canada, Chanel Beckenlehner has joined with IHOP restaurants to serve as an ambassador for the fundraiser.
On National Pancake Day, IHOP Restaurants guests are encouraged to make a voluntary donation to Children’s Miracle Network in exchange for a free short stack of buttermilk pancakes. 2015 marks the second year that IHOP has extended the successful fundraiser to Canada. Participating IHOP restaurants throughout Canada aim to beat last year’s fundraising total of $35,000. To find a local IHOP or to donate online, visit www.ihoppancakeday.com.
