In San Diego, we'd be raising funds for Rady Children's Hospital, the San Diego region’s only designated trauma center and area hospital dedicated solely to pediatric care.  Read below to see how pancakes can help.

Lately, we at CMN Hospitals can't stop thinking about pancakes. And that's because IHOP restaurants nationwide are embarking on a mission to raise $2.7 million for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals and other local charities with its National Pancake Day celebration, set for Tuesday, February 28, 2012!


This pancake-based partnership has helped countless kids receive medical care, having raised more than $8 million in just six short (stack) years! For 2012, IHOP is making it easier than ever for their guests to participate with an online giving option and a month-long bounce-back Miracle Balloon sales offer.

Pancake Pandemonium: As in years past, the National Pancake Day fundraiser invites guests to enjoy a free short stack of IHOP's warm, fluffy and oh-so-famous buttermilk pancakes from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. IHOP restaurants hope that guests consider making a voluntary contribution to support the Children's Miracle Network Hospital in their area.

Raising the fundraising goal to an all-time high this year, IHOP is counting on donations from guests who cannot visit an IHOP on National Pancake Day and offering them a chance to contribute all month long. Here's the short of it:


--Guests are invited to visit www.IHOPpancakeday.com at any time to make a donation directly to their area's Children's Miracle Network Hospital.


--In anticipation of Pancake Day, this year IHOP restaurants nationwide will sell personalized Children's Miracle Network Hospitals paper "Miracle Balloons" that will be displayed during the entire month of February.


--$1 and $5 balloons will be available, with the $5 balloon offering an incentive coupon of $5 off on a future visit to participating IHOP locations.


With National Pancake Day and month-long ways to give, there's a reason for everyone to help their CMN Hospital! For more information about National Pancake Day and how you can help, check out www.IHOPpancakeday.com. Spread the word and we'll hope to see y'all there on February Twenty-Ate!
