The funds go towards providing much-needed support for families with sick children, helping to keep them close to each other and the medical care their child needs.
Michèle Boudria, President and CEO of McDonald’s Canada said “The success of this year’s McHappy Day is a testament to the generosity and support of our guests, franchisees and their crew and our employees. We are incredibly honoured to be able to contribute to the impactful work of RMHC and other local children’s charities, who do so much to support our communities.”
One in four Canadians have either stayed at a Ronald McDonald House or know someone who has, supporting up to 554 families every night.
