Inkind: Adopt the Ronald McDonald House for a Week!In our Adopt the House Program, an individual, group, family or business commits to providing essentials for the House for one week -- perishable items like fresh fruits and vegetables, eggs, milk and bread; cleaning supplies to keep the House bright, cheery and healthy; or basic toiletries, like soap, shampoo, toothbrushes and toothpaste for families that need them. Sometimes people that adopt the House choose to purchase needed items themselves and sometimes they donate gift cards or cash for staff members to purchase the needed items. Needs vary from week to week. One week we may need an extra gallon of milk. Another week, it might be supplies for dinner on a night we don’t have a meal scheduled. It all depends on the needs of the House and the number of families in the House at the time. Every donation, large or small, helps families who are far from home and dealing with a sick or injured child. Neighborhoods, work groups and families can join together for a good cause. This can be a one-time or recurring opportunity.

Volunteer: A Little Gardening Help!The first Tuesday of every month, the Landscape Crew of RVCC's Building & Grounds Committee gathers for two hours beginning at 8:00 AM to tackle gardening & landscaping projects - generally some pruning, some weeding, or some thinning and transplanting. We'll start you off with a cup of Trager Brothers' freshly-roasted coffee and hydrate you with fresh mountain water from our well! It's outdoor work, so it's weather dependent, and suitable gear would include work gloves, hats, long pants, sun protection and some bug repellant. It would also help if you could also bring gardening tools, including trowels, pruners, loppers, hedge trimmers, etc. Thanks!
