Dairy Queen's 'Miracle Treat Day' Benefits Beaumont Children's
Donations collected on Miracle Treat Day will help Beaumont Children's fund to buy equipment and pay for children's treatments.
ROYAL OAK, MI — On Thursday, getting a treat at the Rochester Road Dairy Queen will also be sweet for patients at Children’s Medical Center at Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak. During Miracle Treat Day, $1 or more from every Blizzard sold at Metro Detroit locations will be donated to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, which raises funds and awareness for 170 children’s hospitals across the U.S. and Canada.
Last year’s Miracle Treat Day raised more than $44,000 for Beaumont Children’s. Since 1984, Dairy Queen has raised more than $125 million for the charity through fundraising efforts including Miracle Treat Day, the Miracle Balloon campaign and other local initiatives.
Donations collected on Miracle Treat Day will help Beaumont Children’s fund equipment, treatments and programs, including the Child Life Program that helps reduce children’s anxiety during their hospital stay. Donations also help purchase hospital sleeper sofas for parents and vein finders for babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
