33 years ago my sister Debbie was one of the first families to walk through these doors. Yesterday our family was the very last to walk out of those doors. The brand new Ronald McDonald House will be ready in a little over a month. We will be one of the first families to go through the new doors. Thank you everyone who supports BCCH and RMH!
From me:
My Auntie Ruth also stayed there with her toddler and critically ill baby during the house's early years.
We are glad to have experienced this special place for part of our stay here in Vancouver. We would have missed out had we not made some friends and memories there.
Here is a lovely video of A Day in the Life at RMHBC. The bedroom shown just before the 2:00 minute mark is the room we stayed in for almost 2 weeks.
Wednesday May 7th is McHappy Day!
Via Ronald McDonald House BC ...
$1 from every Big Mac, Happy Meal, and hot McCafé beverage sold on this day in BC will be donated to Ronald McDonald House BC and other children's charities. Since 2010, proceeds from McHappy Day have helped to build our new House and Surrey Family Room, so be sure to stop by your local McDonald's!
I really enjoyed that. What a valuable resource!!
