Pancake lovers can enjoy one free short stack of pancakes today while also supporting Children's Miracle Network at The Medical Center during IHOP's National Pancake Day.

From 7 a.m.- 10 p.m, IHOP customers can get one free short stack(3) of buttermilk pancakes and, in turn, will be asked to consider making a donation to Children's Miracle Network. Locally, all proceeds will benefit Children's Miracle Network at The Medical Center.

Participating local IHOP restaurants include those at 2111 Airport Thruway in Columbus, 2939 N. Lake Parkway in Columbus, 3747 Highway 431 N. in Phenix City, and 1463 Opelika Road in Auburn.

Since its inception in 2006, IHOP's National Pancake Day fundraiser has raised more than $3.25 Million.
