"It is great to have support because everyone’s going through something similar, something life changing, and the support has been great from families and staff at the Ronald McDonald House."
~Tisha, mom of Lauryn, age nine months old

Hello family and friends,
Your runner or walker is participating in the Fitness World 5K on September 24, 2011 in Durham, NC. This 5K is supporting the work of the Ronald McDonald House of Durham, a local non-profit that supports families of critically ill children who have had to travel from other cities, states and countries to receive medical treatment at Duke University Medical Center. They would like to ask you to join them in supporting the Ronald McDonald House of Durham by making a tax-deductible donation and helping them in their goal to raise much needed funds for these families. Your donation will be used to provide housing, food, supplies and transportation to families while their child is in the hospital or receiving medical treatments.

You can choose to give a one time gift in support of your runner/walker or choose to give a reoccurring gift in the options below. You will receive an immediate email confirmation of your donation, as well as a tax recognition letter by mail in the next month. For questions regarding the Ronald McDonald House of Durham, our programs and donation policies, or the Fitness World 5K on September 24, please contact Lindsay Hege, Special Events Manager at 919.281.1064 or Lindsay@ronaldhousedurham.org.
