30-Something Singles at Ronald McDonald House


Our class decided to prepare a dinner for the occupants of the Ronald McDonald House in Birmingham. This is a house which has 41 rooms to house parents or guardians of children that are in the hospital in Birmingham. Most of the families are from out of the Birmingham area and have no other place to stay except a hotel, which can be very expensive. Some of the families are at this location for an extended period of time and are very appreciative of home cooked meals. Our class provided Baked Ziti, Salad, Bread and dessert. The occupants were very nice and glad we brought them dinner. It is one less thing they have to worry about. The house attendant gave our group a tour of the facility before we left and we also learned of some other items they are in need of at the house. Overall, it was a great day and everyone seemed to have enjoyed the meal and the fellowship.
