For its 14th annual free pancake giveaway on Tuesday, March 12, the International House of Pancakes is encouraging pancake-lovin' customers to "flip it forward for kids."
Participating locations are offering up a free short stack of buttermilk pancakes per customer between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Tuesday as a way to raise awareness for the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals and perhaps inspire folks to donate the price of their free meal (about $6) to one of three charities dedicated to treating child illnesses. The chain has a $4 million fundraising goal.

Also on the menu on Tuesday: the “Oreo Oh My Goodness” stack or combo—the winning creation from 6-year-old CMN patient Brody Simoncini of the 2019 IHOP Kid Chef Team.
The "funny, active six-year-old with a love of sports" was born with Giant Omphalocele, "a rare and life-threatening abdominal wall defect that caused some of his organs to be on the outside of his body," according to CMN. Though he spent the first seven and a half months of his life at Boston Children's Hospital, the elephant-loving, Oreo-obsessed first-grader is getting healthier by the year.
If you purchase Brody’s special between now and April 14, $1 from the purchase will go directly to the charities.
