A fundraiser that aims to help improve the lives of sick children across Canada returns to IHOP Restaurants – including the South Surrey location – next month.
During National Pancake Day, set for 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. March 8, guests are offered a free short stack of buttermilk pancakes and invited to donate to Children’s Miracle Network.
Miss Universe Canada Paola Nunez will make personal appearances at yet-to-be identified locations, trading in her tiara for a chef’s hat and apron to help flip and serve the pancakes.
All money raised will stay within the community where it was donated.
“I am excited to partner with IHOP and Children’s Miracle Network for National Pancake Day 2016 in Canada,” Nunez said in a news release.
“As an advocate of giving back and making a difference for children in need, I am honoured to be a part of an annual fundraising effort that is dedicated to improving the lives of kids in need across Canada.”
National Pancake Day began in the U.S. in 2006, and is now celebrated in IHOP restaurants throughout Mexico and the Philippines as well as Guam and Puerto Rico.
The South Surrey IHOP is located at 2429 152 St.
