You can have short stack of IHOP world-famous buttermilk pancakes from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday for just $1 and help stave off child hunger at the same time.

ExploreIHOP restaurants nationwide will donate 100 percent of the proceeds to No Kid Hungry, which works to end childhood hunger by ensuring that kids start the day with a nutritious breakfast and families learn the skills they need to shop and cook on a budget. No Kid Hungry is a campaign of national anti-hunger organization Share Our Strength.

For close to six decades, the International House of Pancakes, pioneer of the all day breakfast, has been bringing guests a freshly made breakfast but at least one in every five children across the U.S. struggles to get the food they need to grow and thrive.

To make an impact in the lives of hungry children across America, the popular franchise hopes to serve one million pancakes on Tuesday.

You can help.
