On Tuesday, March 15th, participating Dairy Queen locations in Alabama will offer customers a free vanilla soft-serve cone!

All the ice cream restaurant asks in return is for customers to consider donating to Children’s of Alabama on what they're deeming as "Free Cone Day."

Donations will be collected nationwide for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals (CMNH), which raises funds to help save the lives of children treated at 170 children’s hospitals in the U.S. and Canada. All donations collected on Free Cone Day stay in the local community to support children at area CMN Hospitals.

Dairy Queen raised a total of $140,000 and served more than 1,330 cones per store during "Free Cone Day" in 2015.
