Dairy Queen’s Miracle Treat Day helps kids at UK Galisano Children’s Hospital

UK Galisano Children's Hospital

Dairy Queen locations across Kentucky are turning sweet treats into support for kids in need today.

Miracle Treat Day is happening July 30, with $1 or more from every Blizzard Treat sold at participating locations going directly to UK Golisano Children’s Hospital through the Children’s Miracle Network.

The annual fundraiser has helped Kentucky Dairy Queen stores raise more than $90,000 in past years. Nationwide, thousands of Dairy Queen locations take part, raising millions of dollars for children’s hospitals.

Customers can help by stopping by a participating Dairy Queen and ordering any Blizzard flavor or size. The donation is automatically made with each purchase, helping provide care and support for pediatric patients and their families.
