It's hard to believe, but the month of August is upon us, which means our annual Children's Miracle Network Radiothon at the University of Iowa Stead Family Children's Hospital is only a couple of weeks away! Before we get to that, though, there is a way that you can help out that amazing organization this week.

Today, August 2nd is Dairy Queen's 'Miracle Treat Day!' What's Miracle Treat Day, you ask? The official website states:

"On Miracle Treat Day, $1 or more from every Blizzard Treat sold at participating DQ® U.S. locations will be donated to local Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals®.  On Thursday, Aug. 2*, stop by your nearest participating location to enjoy a Blizzard Treat that not only tastes good, it does good."

The annual event is always a HUGE day for the Children's Miracle Network. In the past three years, Dairy Queen has raised over $15 million for the organization, and locations here in Iowa raised over $90,000 for the UI Stead Family Children's Hospital just last year! If there was ever a perfect time to crave some ice cream, today would be it!

Please help us support some wonderful children here in Eastern Iowa!
