Support Children’s Hospital Foundation on IHOP’s National Pancake Day February 25, 2020!

Visit participating IHOP locations on February 25 to celebrate IHOP’s National Pancake Day and support pediatric research, education and clinical care in Oklahoma!

It’s easy to celebrate IHOP National Pancake Day! Here’s how:

  1. Visit a participating IHOP location on February 25 and donate to your local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital in exchange for a free short stack of pancakes.
  2. Invite your friends and family to join you and share that you’re supporting your local children’s hospital on social media using #NationalPancakeDay.

You might think it’s just a day to get a free short stack of delicious IHOP buttermilk pancakes, but it actually is a day that makes a BIG difference for kids treated at our hospital. Kids like Mattie.

Mattie was diagnosed with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia at 19 weeks of gestation. She was born with less than 10% of the left side of her diaphragm. This forced all of her abdominal organs to develop in her chest and thus compromised the development of her left lung and pushed her heart to the right side of her chest. Mattie underwent multiple surgeries to overcome these complications and today she is a happy, healthy child who loves to dance.

Why you should help?

Did you know that 62 kids enter a Children’s Miracle Network Hospital every minute? That’s more than 10 million kids every year. Donations raised at IHOP on National Pancake Day help fund critical treatments and healthcare services, pediatric medical equipment and charitable care. CHildren’s Hospital Foundation supports pediatric research, education and clinical care at the Oklahoma Health Center. All funds raised stay in Oklahoma to ensure no child has to leave the state to receive the best care possible.

To thank you for helping kids on National Pancake Day, guests can enter to win pancakes for life or 250,000 other prizes by scanning the QR code on the table tent on February 25.

Thanks to IHOP for supporting Children’s Hospital Foundation and to all of you for enjoying free pancakes and helping kids!
