Until 7 p.m. on Tuesday, IHOP will be giving away three pancakes per customer to celebrate National Pancake Day and raise money for various charities.
This year, IHOP is encouraging its guests to donate to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals or other local charities in an effort to add to the nearly $20 million the restaurant has raised by celebrating National Pancake Day since 2006 by giving away free short stacks, according to the chain’s website.
