The Warmth We Feel for Pancake Day

The more we think about it, IHOP National Pancake Day is the perfect late-winter activity!

While we wait for temps to warm up and spring to sprout, we can rely on warm, fluffy and free pancakes for one full day. You can ask for warm syrup, a request IHOP associates will no doubt serve with a warm smile. What's more, we always hear about the warm feeling IHOP visitors get when they make a donation to our U.S. hospitals before heading back out for their day.

We hope you'll receive the warmth and stop by your neighborhood IHOP today to benefit your area's hospital, or other local charity. While there, make sure to look for the employee T-shirts. They feature artwork from our 2011 Delaware Champion Julia. She's pictured here (center) with her brother and sister. Julia recovered from a life-threatening dairy allergy, so we understand if she orders her pancakes with whipped cream!

 

Julia isn't the only Champion with an artistic take on Pancake Day. Our 2009 New Jersey Champion Kaitlin sent us a video of her poetic take on free pancakes and how it benefits kids like her. She sums it up pretty well, we think!
