The two Dairy Queen locations in Prince George are participating in the annual Miracle Treat Day event Thursday (Aug. 10).
BC Children’s Hospital Foundation will receive net proceeds of every Blizzard Treat sold at select DQ locations across British Columbia.
Participating Canadian stores raised more than $2 million for Children’s Miracle Network on Miracle Treat Day in 2022, including $278,140 for BC Children’s Hospital Foundation, which is one of 13 Children’s Miracle Network hospital foundations.
“Purchasing a Blizzard at Dairy Queen on Miracle Treat Day is a fun, easy, and tasty way for British Columbians to support BC Children’s Hospital Foundation,” said Rita Thodos, Executive Vice-President, Philanthropy at BC Children’s Hospital Foundation.
“Last year, over 130,000 kids and youth depended on BC Children’s Hospital. No matter the size of your DQ purchase, your generosity helps fund breakthrough research and training, purchase cutting-edge equipment, and provide supportive care for seriously ill kids across BC and the Yukon. Every Blizzard sold truly makes a difference on DQ’s Miracle Treat Day.”
The Dairy Queen locations in Prince George are at 1924 Third Ave. and 5090 Domamo Blvd.
