In what may be the world’s largest annual pancake party fundraiser, IHOP recently announced that it will again host its National Pancake Day free pancake giveaway on Tuesday, February 5, 2013 from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. at its more than 1,500 IHOP restaurants nationwide. The celebration offers every guest a free short stack IHOP’s signature buttermilk pancakes as a way to thank guests for their loyal patronage. In exchange, guests are invited to make an optional contribution to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and other local charities. This year marks IHOP’s eighth year offering free pancakes on National Pancake Day. In just seven years, IHOP and its guests have raised more than $10 million for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and other local causes. In 2013, IHOP hopes to raise an additional $3 million. More than four million free flapjacks were served on National Pancake Day 2012. To learn more about the event, find a local IHOP or donate online, visit www.ihoppancakeday.com.
