Help The Ronald McDonald House Charities. Of course you can always drop your change in the charity boxes at every McDonald's restaurant, but if you live near a Ronald McDonald House, you can also donate your time. They have a 30 ways in 30 days list on their website with 30 ways you can help. http://rmhc.org/how-you-can-help/volunteer/30-ways-in-30-days/
These include bringing baked goods, planting flowers, cooking a meal, decorating a room. There are all kinds of jobs here for all kinds of volunteers, whether you are good with people, a good cook or good with plants. Anyone who can answer a phone can help. If you are housebound, you can collect pop tabs from aluminum cans for their program. Phone: 630-623-7048Email: info@rmhc.org
