The catch? IHOP guests will be asked to leave a donation for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals or other designated local charities.



Children's Miracle Network Hospitals exists to raise money for their 170 member hospitals across the United States and Canada.



Since starting the fun day of observance, the IHOP chain has raised nearly $20 million for charities. The goal this year on National Pancake Day is to raise $3.5 million.
