Chicago Ronald McDonald House reveals kitchen, dining makeover
After six months of construction, a Ronald McDonald House near Lurie Children's Hospital unveiled a makeover to their kitchen and dining spaces.
The Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana on Grand Avenue completed its renovation to modernize their kitchen and dining areas.
In its new space, volunteers will be able to prepare more than 140,000 meals for families each year, creating a space for incoming families.
"Our houses allow families to stay together while their kids are in the hospital," said chief program officer Lisa Mitchell. "Families are at the heart of everything we do, and we want to make them comfortable and support them through their child's medical journey."
Along with housing, Ronald McDonald provides families with laundry facilities, play areas for children, and assistance with transportation.
If you are interested in volunteering more information is available on the Ronald McDonald House website.
