RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES® (RMHC®) OF THE COASTAL EMPIRE

Chef of the House Challenge II Savannah,  Georgia

Ira Ruby's Fundraising Page

 

Dear Friends,

I am honored to support Ronald McDonald House Charities for the second year in a row by participating in the Chef of the House Challenge.  Thank you so much for supporting me and this worthy cause.  Last year I exceed my goal of $2,015.00 and raised $3,418.00!  Thank you to everyone who supported me and the Ronald McDonald House! This year my goal is raise at least that much.  I hope you will help me get there.   If you could see your way to sponsor me for a 1 or 2 nights it will be an enormous help and encouragement.  The event's prize sponsor, Kitchenware Outfitters, will be giving a $25 gift certificate to every donor who contributes $65 or more to my page between now and the competition. (Certificates will be mailed to you.)

I will be preparing a meal for the residents of Ronald McDonald House in competition with fellow board members Rick & Cindi Vogel on Friday, July 30th. It is all in good fun for the Charity, and I appreciate all the support you can give.

The Savannah Ronald McDonald House provides comfort and a place to stay for parents with critically ill or injured children. Their 10-bedroom House offers all the qualities of home--beds, showers, laundry room, and a home-cooked meal prepared each night by community volunteers with their Adopt A Meal program.  Raising funds makes it possible for families to stay regardless of their financial situation with their Share A Night program.  The House operates at nearly 100% occupancy, 365 days a year.  It costs RMHC $65 per day to provide its brand of hospitality for each family.

Suggested Donations:
$65 covers the cost for one family for one night at the House
$130 covers two nights for one family
$455 covers an entire week for one family
$2,015 covers an entire month for one family
 
These are just suggested donations.  Any and all donations no matter the level are welcomed with open arms.
