Ronald McDonald House of Fort Lauderdale is currently accepting new contributors for the Adopt a Meal Program. The Adopt a Meal program provides a much-needed support service to families who are taking care of their sick children, and often don't have the time, funds, or energy to prepare a healthy, home-cooked meal. Our charity provides a home away from home for the families whose children need medical treatment in nearby medical facilities.
Any meal is welcome: breakfast, lunch or dinner, 7 days a week. Meals can either be prepared at the House, delivered or catered. The meals are placed in the dining room buffet style for all families currently lodging at the Ronald McDonald House of Fort Lauderdale. Our occupancy changes daily, but does not exceed over 65 guests. We currently have about 20-35 guests staying at the House.
We'd like to know if and what meal(s) you'd be interested in participating in for the upcoming months. Your community is welcome to drop by for a tour of the House and meet with the families. We appreciate our community and your participation means a lot to the families that come across our doors. We ask that if you are interested that at least one person from your group attend our Orientation group that is held every Friday at 6pm at our house. Please give us a call so we can put your name or group on our Orientation List.
If you have any further questions, you can contact us at (954) 828-1822 and speak with Anne Saintilus, Assistant House Manager. You can also reach her by email at candy@rmhcsouthflorida.org.
