Dairy Queen will give away free cones on Tuesday, March 15 to help benefit Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, which includes Seattle Children’s.
The only DQ restaurant in Kent is the DQ Grill and Chill, 25206 104th Ave. S.E.
Throughout the day, participating non-mall Dairy Queen and DQ Grill & Chill locations across the U.S. will serve customers a free small vanilla soft-serve cone with the signature curl on top (limit one per customer while supplies last).
“Last year’s success of Free Cone Day surpassed all expectations and we have our fans to thank for that,” said Barry Westrum, executive vice president of marketing for American Dairy Queen Corporation, in a media release. “Together we raised $140,000 in one day for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and we averaged serving more than 1,330 cones per store. We are looking to surpass those numbers this year.”
During Free Cone Day, the DQ system is accepting donations for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, which raises funds to help save and improve the lives of kids treated at 170 children’s hospitals across the U.S. and Canada. Over the last 30 years, the Dairy Queen system has raised more than $100 million for the hospitals.
