Ronald McDonald House

SBU DPT Community Serves Those in Need!

Five DPT students, Ashley, Jimmie, Tiffany, Clara and Brittney, visited the Ronald McDonald House of the Ozarks to bring a warm, home cooked meal to those living there. With donations from the rest of the physical therapy student body at SBU as well as the faculty and staff, we were able to make homemade pizzas for the 23 people currently staying at RMHC. The people served were all families of children requiring extended hospital stays. Most of those served were new mothers and fathers. Their newborn babies were staying just across the street in the NICU. Everyone served was very grateful for the warm meal and just made fresh baked cookies.

Thank you for all of your help, without the volunteers and the donations, we would not have been able to serve these people.
