Focus on Families
Summertime will be here before we know it. It’s a playful time for most. And, many kids love to go swimming.
Unfortunately, accidents happen. In 2004, Anthony had an awful swimming accident. He was immediately
flown to a nearby hospital and after three weeks, the doctors provided little hope for Anthony.
Today, he’s making great progress…there is hope! Anthony turned five this spring. He is starting to say
words, hold items and sit by himself with little support. As you can see from his picture, he has the
greatest smile that easily warms your heart.
Anthony’s parents had heard of Ronald McDonald House Charities before the accident but never
dreamed they would need the House. Their children were born healthy and you never think
a tragic accident will happen to your family. Anthony’s family has stayed at four different
Houses since the accident and each time has had a good and supportive experience.
“Each House has made us feel right at home and given us a place to stay while going
through a tough time and taking away some of the stress.”
Their stay at the Longfellow House has been their longest. Anthony’s mom
expressed that “It’s amazing how the volunteers and staff can really make you
feel at home.” She also wanted to share with supporters of Ronald McDonald
House Charities, “The work that you do is wonderful and knowing that there are
people still out there willing to lend a hand to the children and their families is
comforting.”
Like many other families staying at Ronald McDonald House, Anthony’s
parents appreciate the help and comfort of knowing that they’re not
alone as they go through the journey of their child’s recovery.

Thank you for
your change!
It’s amazing how fast a little change can add up to help others. Because of friends like you, in 2007, over $158,000 was
collected from the charitable canisters located in 140 McDonald’s restaurants throughout the Kansas City area from
Lawrence, KS to Marshall, MO to St. Joseph, MO to Ottawa, KS.
Pocket change collected throughout the year benefits the medically fragile children and their families calling Ronald
McDonald House Charities their “home away from home.” Next time you visit your favorite McDonald’s restaurant,
please consider leaving your change…to make change.

Honey-Do Helpers
Volunteers are such an integral part of the daily operations
of our Houses and Family Room.
We are delighted to have a new committee of volunteers
join the ranks of House Warmers, Meal Groups and Work
Groups. Our Volunteer Maintenance Crew is off to a busy
start this year helping with projects such as: rebuilding
shelves, upgrading electrical needs, repairing vacuums,
cleaning air ducts and much more. Between both Houses
we have quite the “honey-do list” for these gentleman,
and they always complete the tasks with a smile! If you
or someone you know is interested in “helping out
around the Ronald McDonald Houses,” as a Maintenance
Volunteer or House Warmer, giving 2-4 hours, twice
a month, call or email Kerry Stein, Volunteer Program
Manager at 816-842-8321 ext. 101 or [email protected].

Heart of the House… Spring 2008
day our Houses and Family Room are a blessing of support to so many families who never imagined themselves
experiencing a child’s illness or injury. We also know that the heart of our community is strong in its overwhelming support of Ronald McDonald House Charities as we provide a home away from home for literally thousands
of families each year.
For the children and families who stay at the Houses and Family Room, we are a caring community of a small
staff team and a huge number of dedicated volunteers who work the front desk, prepare meals, and help with
work group chores. Each time the door opens, this group of concerned
people welcomes children and families into their supportive circle of
care and compassion.
During this spring and season of rebirth, we hope that it is in your
heart to continue or start your journey of supporting RMHC to
ensure that the Houses and Family Room will be there to help
families through one of the toughest times of their lives.
Ps: Since this is my last note as CEO, I wanted to mention that I’m
thankful for the many memories we share. I will miss everyone that I
have had the privilege to work with and lead during the past seven years
as we have expanded our mission. It’s an awesome feeling to know
that as a team we help so many families! Thank you for a successful
and endearing journey!

Eight Months Away
From Home
Imagine needing to call the Ronald McDonald House your “home” for
eight months or more. Life as you know it changes drastically with the
trauma of a child’s serious illness or injury. It greatly impacts your
child’s world, and affects all involved including parents, siblings and
extended families.
We’re here to help lessen the burden. With the opening of the
Longfellow House two years ago and its 12 new suites, we have been
able to provide families with a place to stay for extended periods of
time. These suites provide families with children undergoing organ
transplants or chemotherapy a place to call home for the duration of
their care. Even the most minor illness can prove to be life threatening
to them. The suites provide a “homey” feeling and some comfort with
their own kitchenette and family room.
To date, we have served 71 families in the suites at the Longfellow
House. On average, families stay in the suites 32 days and several
families have stayed over 4 months.
We’re thankful to have been able to get to know these families and
serve them as they recover in their “home-away-from-home”!
“To lift the hearts of kids and families from
the hurt of today to the hope of tomorrow.”

Touched
by Friends
Friends of the House have definitely impacted
others through their commitment to helping the
children and their families of RMHC. Over the
holidays, meals were brought to the Longfellow
House, filling the kitchen with wonderful smells and
hearty food that the families enjoyed. The Friends
opened a General Store in November for guests
to visit and shop. The children have truly enjoyed
spending their McBucks on toys, games, books
and other fun donated items for themselves,
siblings, parents and grandparents.
The Friends of the House children want to
participate also. Fun Friends is perfect for the
younger members that want to help and make a
difference too! In November, they made
Thanksgiving Day bear gift bags using bears
donated by Build-A-Bear Workshop. On Super
Bowl Sunday, the Fun Friends made Valentine
treats for the children staying at the Houses and
Family Room. The gift bags and treats were
enjoyed by the RMHC children and brought
many smiles to their faces.
Thank you, Friends of the House, for allocating
funds for the installation of new entryway flooring
in the Longfellow House. The new flooring will
make it easier for our guests to use when getting
around or moving into their “home-away-from-home.”
Membership involvement is needed. If you would
like to learn more about Friends of the House or to
join, please visit our website at www.rmhckc.org.
In support of Ronald McDonald
House Charities of Kansas City,
Friends of the House attracts
members to raise resources,
broaden the volunteer base,
and enhance awareness in the
Kansas City community.
