For participating in The 2022 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

Give families the gift of being together

Families who face a medical crisis often experience an overwhelming financial burden as well. Your donation eases this stress because it helps provide an affordable and supportive housing option through our Ronald McDonald Houses in Boston, MA and in Providence, RI. Hospital co-payments, time off from work and meals away from home all add to increased expenses for families during an already challenging time Together, we can reduce the stress associated with financial strain so families can focus on the health of their children. By staying at one of our Ronald McDonald Houses in Boston or Providence, parents can be more rested and active in their child’s treatment and recovery; and research shows this greatly improves medical recovery outcomes. Our family-centered care programs such as Meals With Love, Pet-therapy Visits, Non-Clinical Art Therapy, Sibling Programs, and our holistic hospitality approach all focus on helping the entire family feel supported during their stay; and your financial contribution helps to make all of this possible.

Description

The RMHCNE Falmouth Road Race Team is back again this year to run the historic  Falmouth Road Race! Each year our incredible runners and their generous supporters help provide over 900 nights of housing, comfort and support at our Ronald McDonald Houses in Providence and Boston Harbor.

While so many aspects of our life were put on pause for the pandemic, pediatric illness was not.  The Ronald McDonald House in Boston Harbor and Providence continue to receive requests for housing from families who need to travel to receive critical medical care for their child.   Which is why I am asking for your support now. 

On August 21st our team will be hitting the pavement to race 7 miles.  Our team has been training hard preparing for the race but we can’t succeed alone. We need your help to reach and exceed our fundraising goal of $140,000. With your support, our team hopes to provide over 900 nights of accommodations to families in need.  The funds raised by the RMH Falmouth Road Race Team goes directly to the RMHC New England. Families come to Ronald McDonald House from all over the world, often they are leaving behind family and friends to seek out the medical care which they feel will give their child the best chance at survival. Ronald McDonald House eases the financial burden of housing, provides a sense of normalcy and keeps families together during times of medical crisis. 

We hope we can count on you to support our team by contributing to this very special program. If you would like to make an online donation, you can support this important cause by donating here on our fundraising page.

Checks should be made payable to the Ronald McDonald Charities of New England and should include my name in the memo section or in an attached note. They can be mailed to:

Ronald McDonald House

45 Gay Street 

Providence, RI 02905

Thank you in advance for your support. Together we can make a difference in the lives of these kids.
