TORONTO — On August 10, DQ Canada’s Miracle Treat Day will continue to raise funds for kids receiving care at local children’s hospitals across the country. For the 21st consecutive year, net proceeds from every Blizzard Treat sold at participating locations will be donated. In 2022 alone, Canadian children’s hospitals delivered care through more than three million in-person and virtual visits.
“DQ’s partnership with the Children’s Miracle Network has contributed [more than] $48 million in support of local children’s hospital foundations across Canada,” says Adam Starkman, president and CEO of Canada’s Children’s Hospital Foundations, the not-for-profit organization running Children’s Miracle Network in Canada. “The success of Miracle Treat Day contributes to our goal of improving the health and wellbeing of children who rely on the treatment and care they receive at their local children’s hospital.”
“We’re proud to be celebrating the 21st Miracle Treat Day and are extremely grateful for the fundraising efforts DQ franchisees put in year-round,” says Candida Ness, VP of Marketing, DQ Canada. “We’ve made a positive difference in the lives of so many children. Miracle Treat Day is DQ’s most important day of the year, and our franchisees and fans play a vital role in helping us make those miracles happen.”
