Thank you all for your support. We do not currently have a scheduled date for another “Dinner at Our House”. If you wish to participate please contact Natalie Samuel, Membership Services Officer, at natalie@uwosa.ca.
Our Membership Newsletter and Social Committee invites you to the following volunteer opportunity:
Ronald McDonald House London (RMHL) “Dinner at our House”
Please join your fellow UWOSA colleagues as we come together for Dinner at our House nights at Ronald McDonald House London (RMHL). The RMHL Dinner at our House program provides a welcoming, supportive and secure environment to out-of-town families of seriously ill or injured children who are in London receiving medical treatment.
On the dates listed below, a group of our members (8-10 individuals per/dinner night) will help plan, purchase, and prepare dinner for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House (approximately 60+ individuals).
To help with the cost of the dinner which includes the entrée, salad, juice, & dessert, our members who volunteer to participate will be asked to contribute $20 (cash) that will be used to purchase the dinner items.
