Red Deer Dairy Queen locations set to mark $1 million raised for Children’s Miracle Network
A major fundraising milestone will be celebrated in our city next week.
Red Deer’s Dairy Queen locations are set to surpass the $1 million fundraising mark for the Children’s Miracle Network through Miracle Treat Day, becoming just the second franchisee family in Canada to do so.
Drew Hamill, General Manager for Red Deer Dairy Queen says they are both humbled and overwhelmed by the achievement.
“We’ve been in the community for 50 years now and we enjoy being involved in the community,” states Hamill. “It’s something where we believe that if you take care of the community, they take care of you in return and it’s something that our staff have completely bought into. Over the past few years we’ve really stepped up our fundraising probably in the last I’d say 10 years everything really started and took off.”
