15 years of RMH! Lauren's 23rd Birthday.

Ends: May 25, 2018

March 2004, age 7 (turning 8 that April). Me, my Mum and my sister knock on the big red door of Ronald McDonald House Southwestern Ontario and beg to volunteer doing anything. Lo and behold, the House welcomed us in with open arms, and from there, we were inseparable. My mum did reception while my sister and I cleaned rooms. We scrubbed toilets, baked cookies, donated playpens, TVs and VCRs, but most of all, we became a part of the love that has built this beautiful place. This month, March 2018, marks 15 years of our lives that have be dedicated to serving RMHSWO. I turn 23 this April. That means about 70% of my lifespan has consisted of serving RMHSWO. All said and done... RMHC is where I've GROWN UP. This charity reflects who I am in my bones, in my heart, in my soul, and even on my face. When the world didn't seem to get the ugly little kid I was, my family and RMHC told me that I was beautiful, that I was strong, that I was loved. RMHC, and especially RMHSWO, will forever live in these pieces of me. So, in my last few months with RMHSWO, while I prepare for a new chapter in my life, I want to leave RMHSWO with a few more items than when I got here! Please help me contribute an in-person donation one last time before my move!!! I love you RMHSWO. Tons tons tons.
