Our August Jennie Day Meal had an Italian theme, with cheesy baked ziti, meatballs and sauce, and freshly baked garlic knots, along with chocolate chip and homemade oatmeal cherry cookies for dessert. We’d like to thank Mitchel Lapenson for sponsoring the August meal. Our 2018 meal calendar is now full, but we need sponsors for 2019. A $100 meal sponsorship provides food for families at the Ronald McDonald House of the Greater Hudson Valley, and also for families, patients, and hospital staff at the Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital Pediatric ICU and Oncology wards. You can get more information and sign up for sponsorship at https://a.jenniefoundation.org/meal-sponsorship/.

This month we were also able to sponsor 20-day stays at both the Ronald McDonald House of the Greater Hudson Valley and the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House, and provide gas cards and infant clothing to the MFCH Family Resource Center. These donations help ease the financial burden of families dealing with serious childhood illness, and they would not be possible without your continued support. Thank You!
