Dairy Queen Miracle Balloon Campaign- The Perfect Reason for a Treat!

Dairy Queen® is a proud supporter of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, like Dayton Children’s. In 36 years, DQ has raised over $154 million, helping fund essential programs at children’s hospitals. These programs bring healing and hope to hundreds of thousands of children each year.

The passionate commitment that DQ franchisees and employees have for raising funds for CMNH is matched only by the generous support of DQ fans. Beginning July 27th that passion will be displayed by the 2020 Miracle Balloon Campaign and will run through the month of August. Fans will receive a coupon with every donation, so the good news is you’ll have a reason to return right away and use your coupon! The even better news is that each purchase of this joyful symbol of healing and happiness directly supports kids being treated by Dayton Children’s Hospital. Kids like Sydnei and Antonio.

Along with her older brother, Antonio Jr., Sydnei was born with a blood disorder called sickle cell disease. Sickle cell has hospitalized Antonio Jr. numerous times throughout his life. Last year, he was inpatient six times. Prior to that, Antonio had gone years without being hospitalized. Though both teens suffer from this painful life-long condition, most would never know based on their positive attitude and active roles in the community. Sydnei attends Stivers School for the Arts and is actively involved in orchestra and dance. “Music and dance make me feel free,” she says. “I can’t have a bad day when I’m floating in the air.”

Sydnei and Antonio have a very special bond.

Join Dairy Queen July 27th – August 31st and purchase a miracle balloon so that kids like Syndei and Antonio can continue focusing on the things that matter most, enjoying music, dancing and just being kids!
