“During this holiday season, the NBPA selected the Ronald McDonald House to assist in garnering much needed donations for the children and their families who rely on the Ronald McDonald House during difficult times,” said Mitch Karon, NBPA Executive Director. “We are asking our patrons to make a donation and assist this valuable member of the New Brunswick and New Jersey communities.”  Karon said.

The boxes will be out from Friday, November 22nd until Monday, December 23rd, allowing a month for items to be donated.   Items placed in the boxes in public locations will be collected periodically to ensure that all donated items are forwarded timely to the Ronald McDonald House.

 

The Ronald McDonald House creates a “home away from home” atmosphere for families with kids who have been impacted with a serious illness and treatment is far from home. They provide a welcoming and supportive environment for the family, provide various services, and have staff on site at all times to help when needed.
