DQ Canada celebrates 21 years of helping make miracles a reality for local children on Miracle Treat Day

DQ® and BC Children’s Hospital invite Vancouver to help make miracles a reality for local children

August 10 marks the 21st year of net proceeds from every Blizzard Treat sold going to
BC Children’s Hospital, positively impacting children’s healthcare treatment

On Thursday, August 10, Miracle Treat Day is back. DQ fans in Vancouver can continue the 21-year tradition of helping make miracles happen for children and their families by visiting their local DQ to celebrate Miracle Treat Day. The funds raised locally stay local—net proceeds from every Blizzard Treat sold at participating DQ locations in Vancouver will be donated to BC Children’s Hospital Foundation one of 12 Children’s Miracle Network hospital foundations across Canada.

In 2022 alone, local children’s hospitals across Canada delivered care to children through more than three million in-person and virtual visits. DQ employees, franchisees, volunteers and stakeholders come together throughout the year to help raise funds that allow children’s hospitals to provide the best care possible. Since the partnership began 39 years ago in 1984, DQ has become a top contributor to Children’s Miracle Network, with over $48 million raised to date in Canada.
