Supper Club Volunteers at Ronald McDonald House

 

 

  

Families who have a child born with a congenital heart defect will require at least one invasive operation to correct the defect. Many of the parents have to travel out of county or out of state to receive care.

For this reason the Food for Families Program was started as a way to respond to needs expressed by families, caring for their children, who are unable to afford nourishing meals away from home.

 

 

FOOD DRIVE
Canned goods and nonperishable food items make great donations, and they make it easy for families to fix meals and snacks without worrying about grocery shopping. The food will be used to help feed the families staying at the hospital or local lodging while their loved ones receive medical treatment.

 

SUPPER CLUB
Many of the familes staying at the Ronald McDonald House and nearby hospitals do not have the time to shop or fix a nice home cooked dinner let alone have time to eat.  We take the worry out of cooking dinner, volunteers for Sophies Heart bring in food and cook on-site so he families staying at the Ronald McDonald House can take time out and relax.

Please join us as we deliver dinner to the families staying at the Ronald McDonald House at Stanford Dates to be announced.   If you would like to volunteer please email acastillo@sophiesheart.org
