Greetings from RMH Providence,
 

Spring greetings to all.  What better way to enjoy the spring weather than to do it while taking a stroll through Roger Williams Park.  We have lots of great things planned for our 22nd Annual Walk Festival coming up on May 1.  We hope to see you there! 

Thank You
 

The following was written to a room sponsor with gratitude for the generous support.

 "Thank you so very much for providing us with a room at the Ronald McDonald House of Providence. It meant so much to me and my family.  It was not only a place to sleep and shower but the room was also a place to just get away when the hospital scene was just too much.  The staff and everyone there were a big help and so friendly.  You will never know how much of a help it was and just how grateful we really are.  I know all the families that get a chance to stay there will be just as grateful.

Thank You,

Antonia Veiga & Isabel Jones"
