Dairy Queen is inviting the Mobile area community to enjoy a free ice cream cone on Thursday March 19 as part of its annual Free Cone Day, as reported by WALA. The dairy queen free cone promotion aims to welcome customers while encouraging donations for local pediatric care.
The chain is identified in the report as a partner of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and asks patrons to give what they can even though cones are free. Funds raised locally will benefit USA Health Children’s & Women’s Hospital, the region’s Children’s Miracle Network Hospital.
Organizers are promoting the event locally under the name Pitch In & Dip It for Kids, and WALA reports that donations will support critical pediatric programs and services. The station notes that money raised will aid medical advancements and local care so families do not need to travel farther for treatment.
Donations Details And Participating Locations
As reported by WALA, contributions from the Free Cone Day event will help pay for initiatives including a planned state of the art Interventional radiology suite. The suite is described as intended to provide specialized minimally invasive care for children.
