Local Sheriff Dept. & Cheerleading Squad supports Dairy Queen!
Dairy Queen’s Miracle Treat Day 2023 — Helping kids in your community has never been so sweet! For every Blizzard® Treat sold at participating DQ® locations during Miracle Treat Day, which was hosted on Thursday, July 27, $1 or more was donated to local children’s hospitals like Nationwide Children’s through Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.
Throughout the year, DQ® fans demonstrate commitment to creating memorable moments and making a difference in how Nationwide Children’s Hospital through Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals cares for kids. DQ® doesn’t just have food and treats that put a smile on your face– DQ® creates meaningful moments for kids and families in our community.
The Dairy Queen in Etna (Hazelton-Etna Rd.) owned and operated by The Patel Family, hosted a community carnival in support of Nationwide Children’s and the summer activations surrounding Miracle Treat Day with Dairy Queen. Thanks to Ms. Erica Hardy (Director of Training and Operations Development for DQ) & the tremendous help and support from The Patel Family they were able to bring family, friends, and community members together.
This event gained support from the local police departments, deputy representatives, and local sporting teams to help amp up the celebrations. Ms. Hardy passionately shared: “I know this is probably a longshot, and it might not be a big story or even a little story, but it’s our story, it’s the kid story, it’s a story of a family called Pataskala. How $1 built a family. I don’t really think people realize how much organizations like this actually help, a dollar to us is a 1 million memories for one child and family.”
Children are at the center of everything we do and building a strong foundation for their tomorrow needs to start today. Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals see what the future can be, and with support from you and DQ®, we can fund the most urgent needs at Nationwide Children’s Hospital.
When we change kids’ health, we change the future – for all of us.
