Welcome to the Ronald McDonald House

near University of Chicago Comer Children's Hospital

Southwest Airlines Plane Pull Page!

On October 4, 2008, any Volunteers, Family and Friends of the Ronald McDonald House near UCCCH can head over to Midway Airport to compete in the 2nd Annual Southwest Airlines Plane Pull- all to raise funds for the House!

 

What is a Plane Pull?  It's a giant tug-of-war between teams of 20 people and a Southwest Airlines plane.  We will be competing against other teams of 20 for the title of Fastest Team Pull. 

 

The goal is obviously to pull the Southwest Plane as fast as we can, but it is also to fundraise for the House. Will you please help us reach our $4,000 goal (or EXCEED it!) to raise vital funds for our House?

 

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support our fundraising efforts. You can participate in three ways:

1.    Join this team by creating your own firstgiving.com page and fundraising $200 to participate as a team member. You can go to http://www.firstgiving.com/rmhccni and select team Comer House to get a web page of your own that is linked to our main team page!

 

-OR-

 

2.      Start your own team by following the above directions and selecting “Add your team”. Make sure to put RMH near UCCCH as the organization, so that our House receives the credit.

 

-OR-

 

3.    If you can’t make the Plane Pull, make a donation directly to this page to help the team reach our goal!

Ma Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate or join our team too!

 

GO TEAM COMER HOUSE!!!
