Today, $1, $2 or net proceeds from sales of Blizzard Treats at participating Dairy Queen locations will be donated to the Children's Miracle Network.

You're not buying that Double Fudge Cookie Dough Blizzard for yourself, you're doing it for the Children's Miracle Network.

Keep telling yourself that because it's true!

Today, Dairy Queen locations throughout the U.S. and Canada are partnering with the Children's Miracle Network for Miracle Treat Day.
