Ronald McDonald House: Supply Drive

September 23, 2021 @ 8:30 am - 4:00 pm

Free

By donating supplies to our two Ronald McDonald House Programs, you are keeping families of sick children close to each other and near the care and resources they need.

Many times, a family’s stay with us is unexpected and they arrive with little to no personal belongings. We provide a Welcome Bag to each family, but we need help filling these bags with items to make their stay more convenient and comfortable. Consider donations of: travel mugs, personal throw blankets, adult puzzle books, deodorant, or gift cards to stores & restaurants.

While our House kitchen, dining rooms, and other common areas remain closed for safety, we are continuing to provide meal and snacks for our families through providing individually portioned meals. In addition, we keep a full stocked “grab & go” area with drinks, coffee, and snacks. You can provide meals for families by donating gift cards to a restaurant to cater a meal for up to 10 people. Popular items in the grab & go area include: k-cups, bottled water, canned soda, and individually wrapped snacks or chips.

Finally, there are wish list items concerning the operation of the House. These items include: disinfectant wipes, disinfectant spray, standard pillows, zippered pillow protectors, and zippered queen-sized mattress protectors.
