Last Saturday the Reece Raises Hope Foundation held their annual BBQ to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House. It was a sweltering day at Twin Lakes Park but our volunteers stuck it out for the five-hour event. RBRO helped monitor the bounce house, serve food and face paint. The event raised over $7,000, which will go to a new playground for the Ronald McDonald house. Any extra funds will go to remodeling a nursing room in the NICU next year. The foundation has already been able to purchase a cooling blanket for the Children’s Hospital. We were honored to work with the Reece Raises Hope Foundation and hope to continue assisting them in the future.
