Every International House of Pancakes customer will get a free short stack on Tuesday, March 12, as the restaurant puts on its annual Free Pancake Day.
Each year, IHOP serves more than 4 million free pancakes. Diners can get in on the action from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
But the giveaway is actually an opportunity to support charities for children battling critical illnesses, including Shriners Hospitals for Children, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
Each diner will be encouraged to make a donation when they receive their free stack.
