RMHC Asks For Public's Help In Final Push To Reach Goal For Food Pantry Endowment Fund

  • Thursday, May 26, 2016
Throughout the entire month of May, the Ronald McDonald House, a “home away from home” for seriously ill or injured children, focuses their fundraising efforts to finally “bring home the bacon" to raise funds for their food pantry endowment fund, called Mary’s Pantry. As of Thursday, they’ve reached $58,000 of their $75,000 goal and are asking the community to give one last support push. The campaign ends at the end of day on Tuesday.
 
"During May, two generous local partners committed to matching every dollar donated up to $75,000.
When you give a dollar, it becomes two. Once the goal is met, the income generated from the endowment fund will purchase needed food for families all year long," officials said.
