Ronald McDonald House in Charlotte has a new name, but its mission is the same: to serve and comfort families whose children are receiving care in Charlotte’s children’s hospitals.
With its new look and a new name, the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Charlotte is kicking off a popular campaign to reach the community for support – its annual Sport A Shirt, Share a Night drive on April 29th. The Dunstan Group is honored to serve as the nonprofit’s T-shirt supplier for the second year in a row.
New this year as part of the Sport A Shirt campaign, supporters can buy a “Wear Day Bundle” for $30, and get a T-shirt and a ticket to that night’s Charlotte Knights game.
“We love to help others out,” says The Dunstan Group Founder and President Scott Dunstan. “It raises a bunch of money and awareness for the House in general, bringing exposure and sharing stories in the community.”
Families are stronger when they stay together, and the Ronald McDonald House is a safe, affordable home-away-from-home for families of children receiving care at our hospitals. It costs $142 per night to serve these families, and campaigns like Sport A Shirt allow Ronald McDonald House to provide a caring community for families regardless of their ability to pay.
This year, RMHC of GC also opened Caroline’s Corner at Novant Health Hemby Children’s Hospital in May so that families have a comfortable place to rest while their children receive treatment just steps away.
“It’s a win-win-win situation,” says Scott Dunstan about helping RMHC of GC with their Sport A Shirt campaign. “We all have a soft spot for children. Their families can’t afford to be in Charlotte for months on end while their kids are treated, and we love helping the best way we know how.”
You can Sport A Shirt of your own, buy a Wear Day Bundle, or sign up to be a team captain on the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Charlotte website.
While you’re there, pick up some extra swag in the online shop that The Dunstan Group set up to help support RMHC of GC all year long!
