Home for Dinner
The Ronald MacDonald Foundation is a charitable organization that built accommodation facilities near children hospitals in several North American cities to host attendants (parents, siblings, grandparents etc.) of children receiving treatment in the children hospitals. Several charitable and other organizations sign up for volunteering including cooking meals in these facilities in support of these attendants who usually become very busy taking care of their children and have no time to care for themselves. Calgary Sai Centre’s participation in this activity was initiated in the beginning of 2017.
