Merryhill School Delivers Gifts to Ronald McDonald House

On July 13, summer campers from Merryhill Preschool & Elementary School in Arlington delivered a donation of gifts to Ronald McDonald House of Fort Worth. Since mid-June, campers held a coin drive and worked together to raise $150 for the organization. Following the drive, they used their donations to purchase 20 gift bags for critically ill children who are staying at Ronald McDonald House. During the delivery, campers met with representatives from the organization to learn more about how their efforts will benefit kids in need.

Ronald McDonald House of Fort Worth provides a “home-away-from-home” for families of critically ill children, and allows parents and siblings to stay together while remaining close to a child receiving life-saving medical care in area hospitals. Most of all, Ronald McDonald House of Fort Worth is a place where families can find comfort and compassion from volunteers, staff and other families faced with similar challenges.
