As Executive Director of Ronald McDonald House Charities of South Louisiana, I see first hand how we help families dealing with the illness or injury of their child. Providing free accommodations, transportation if needed, volunteer-prepared meals, and a food pantry goes a long way to helping families during a difficult time in their lives. I love being able to interact with the children at Ronald McDonald House New Orleans, and to meet the amazing volunteers we have in our Meals From the Heart and other programs.
