Welcome to McKenzie Shirk's RMHC Fundraising Page
Hello family & friends!
On October 13th, I will be representing Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) Kansas City Chapter at the 2024 Bank of America Chicago Marathon! As a member of Team RMHC, I will be training, fundraising and ultimately running 26.2 miles to help keep families together. With my passion of running since competing in track & cross country when I was younger, I continue to run outside with my dogs and participate in races in the Kansas City Area. Now, I will be training with KC Endurance and running in my first full marathon!
Did you know RMHC helps millions of families each year? RMHC helps families cope better and focus on the needs of their sick child, allowing them the ability to spend more time with their child, to interact with their doctors, and to make important decisions about their child’s care. It costs approximately $100 to give a family one night of comfort and support.
The reason why I have chosen Ronald McDonald House is because my employer, Pulse Design Group, has been working along-side with RMHC - Children's Mercy to transition the Ronald McDonald House - Kansas City inside the hospital by providing bedrooms and 24/7 access for families with children in the pediatric, neonatal and cardiac intensive care units.
I am proud to be part of RMHC partnership and will continue to support their organization.
Your donation, of any amount, will not only help me achieve my goal, but will help children stay close to their families when they need it most. Thank you for your support and making this journey count!
