Since our partnership began in 1979, Alpha Delta Pi has contributed more than $12 million to Ronald McDonald House Charities. However, we know we can give more. Our goal is to establish a permanent relationship with this worthwhile organization, by creating a $1,000,000 endowment by June 2018. To date, we have raised more than $243,000 towards this goal.
This endowment will allow us to support more Ronald McDonald Houses than ever before, broadening our reach! In addition to continuing the partnership between all chapters, alumnae associations, and the local houses they support, this fund will allow any Ronald McDonald House to apply for special funding and grants through our Foundation. It is truly a way for us to more than double our impact and serve RMHC on a global level. At present, our reach only extends to 40% of Ronald McDonald Houses worldwide.
