Enjoy a free short stack of buttermilk pancakes at IHOP today. A donation to Arkansas Children's Hospital would be appreciated.

IHOP invites diners to enjoy free pancakes from 7 a.m.-10 p.m. today (Feb. 28) while supporting Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and other local charities.

More than 1,500 IHOP restaurants throughout the United States will serve each guest a free short stack of IHOP’s signature buttermilk pancakes all day long. In return, guests are encouraged to make a voluntary donation to support Arkansas Children's Hospital (the local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital) or another local charity.

Donations help Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals purchase equipment and fund a variety of life-saving procedures and treatments for seriously ill or injured children.

Participating IHOP restaurants will also raise funds for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals during February through the sale of Miracle Balloons. Guests who purchase a $5 Miracle Balloon will receive a coupon good for $5 off their next visit with a $20 purchase.
