Burr staff serves up support for families at Ronald McDonald House

A group of Burr Elementary teachers served up support for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House in Detroit.

The six teachers supplied ingredients and cooked dinner for approximately 30 families at the house - an extended stay facility for families of children with medical issues.

The teachers were returning a favor of sorts after staff member Cassandra Joss had family stay at the facility.

“I am so blessed to have amazing co-workers at Burr give back to something so special to my family,” Joss said.

Ronald McDonald House is located next to Children’s Hospital of Michigan in the Detroit Medical Center and provides a home away from home for families of seriously ill children being treated at the hospital.

Participating teachers were Kari Dennis, Kristie Marks, Tracy Kammerer, Joss, Melissa Gronzo, and Laura Fortier.
