"Families faced with pediatric cancer bear tremendous financial burdens associated with their child’s care and treatment. When you join the Share a Night Campaign, you can help to relieve families of some of that burden by sharing the cost of their stay at the House.

Families are asked to contribute just $35 per night’s stay — a fraction of the actual cost of $295 per night — but many are unable to pay even that amount. Thanks to gifts from friends like you, no family is ever turned away due to their inability to pay."

"On Saturday, November 11, 2017, at 9:00 am, children ages 4–17 are invited to participate in the 19th Annual Ronald McDonald House Kids Charity Fun Run to benefit Ronald McDonald House New York. This is a great opportunity for kids to have fun and raise money for an important cause. The mission of Ronald McDonald House is unique: We provide temporary housing for children and their families while the children undergo cancer treatment at New York’s renowned medical centers. In our 38 years of service, more than 35,000 children from all 50 states and 70 countries around the world have called the House their “Home-away-from-home.”

Firefighters will line the course. All participants will receive a T-shirt and running number when they enter. Upon finishing the race, there will be finishing ribbons and snacks."

Offer your enthusiasm and support to families in trying times by operating a snack and beverage cart that goes room to room, handing out treats and a smile!
