Assist with preparation and set up, roles and assignments or the clean up and tear down required upon conclusion of the event. Events include Annual Benefit Golf Tournament, Red Shoe Society Kickball Tournament, Holiday Cocktail Party and Lights of Love.

All meals must be prepared on site at our Ronald McDonald House.  We want to ensure good health and sanitation for the families staying in our Houses - so for that reason, we ask that the meals are made in our kitchen.  We simply ask volunteers to provide their ingredients for the meal.  You are welcome to check with me and see if we have the ingredients that you are needing. We then supply all of the pots, pans, bowls, utensils, etc. necessary to prepare the dinner.  Our kitchen have dual cooking stations and offer five sinks, six refrigerators, two stoves, etc. to help accommodate cooking for a larger population.  Generally we average 35 individuals nightly.  I recommend you check in with me a day or two beforehand and I can give you a more accurate headcount.  All Volunteers must be of High School age or older, and we ask that you limit your group size to no more than 12. We have found that it is easier to prepare casseroles or dishes that freeze easily or make good leftovers.  However; please feel free to be as creative as possible with your meal! You are welcome to come in anytime of the day to prepare the meal, as our families come and go all day. They eat when they are back at the house from the hospital. This gives them the freedom to remain bedside with their child! Feel free to send me your menu, this way if we have the needed items in our pantry or freezer I'm happy to set those aside for you to use for our families.
