Dairy Queen® Brings Health and Hope to Kids at Wolfson Children’s Hospital and UF Health Jacksonville on Miracle Treat Day

The DQ® brand is bringing health and hope to kids at Wolfson Children’s Hospital and UF Health Jacksonville, member hospitals of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Wolfson Children’s Hospital and UF Health Jacksonville want to ensure the children in our community can lead healthy, fulfilling lives. But they can’t do it alone.

On Thursday, July 27th, participating DQ® locations are giving back to positively change the health of children in our community. $1 or more from every Blizzard® Treat sold at participating DQ® locations will benefit Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

Through these donations, Wolfson Children’s Hospital and UF Health Jacksonville can provide treatments and support patients desperately need today, so that they can fulfill their potential for tomorrow.

Patients like Isaiah, diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia when he was just three years old. He immediately received a blood transfusion and chemotherapy treatment. For the next nine months, Isaiah received constant spinal taps, hospitalizations, blood transfusions, weekly chemotherapy treatments, and many different medications. Although Isaiah is not considered cancer-free, he has no bad cells in his bone marrow and he is responding well to treatment. Today, Isaiah is an energetic kid who loves riding is bike. His family he is finally feeling better and thankful to all of the staff who helped him. Donations provided help Isaiah unlock a new world of possibilities.
