Ronald McDonald House

Last night I attended the "Fun" draiser at the Ronald McDonald House at Sanford's campus. We were selling "gifts" that the house needs before it hosts the first family on January 12th. There are still many needs that need to be met. The house was filled with many local people who care about the families that will stay here. If you would like to donate an item, please contact me for more information.
