Ronald McDonald House Charities depends on dedicated volunteers to help gather donations.
More than 1,000 volunteers will be stationed at intersections throughout San Diego County – including the intersections of Laurel Street and Pacific Hwy; West Grape Street and Pacific Hwy; West Hawthorn Street and Pacific Hwy; Normal Street and El Cajon blvd;; Normal Street and Washington Ave.; University Ave. and Park Blvd.; Laurel Street and 5th Ave.; West Laurel Street and North Harbor Drive – collecting donations for Ronald McDonald House Charities of San Diego in iconic big red shoes.
Look for enthusiastic volunteers June 28 from 6:30 to 9:30 a.m. and donate cash to help San Diego’s Ronald McDonald House provide a “home away from home” for families with critically ill or injured children being treated at local hospitals. The charity takes care of the daily necessities – including meals, lodging and supportive services – of more than 20,000 family members each year, allowing them to focus their energy on helping their child heal.
