The Meals that Heal Program
The Ronald McDonald House of the Greater Hudson Valley provides families with critically ill and traumatically injured children an atmosphere of comfort, hope and courage, keeping them close to the care and resources they need.
Holy Name of Jesus volunteers participate in The Meals that Heal Program giving family’s one less thing to worry about during their stay at Ronald McDonald House while their child is being treated in the hospital. HNJ volunteers give their time in the House’s kitchen to prepare brunch, lunch, or dinner for the guest families. Funding for the meals is sponsored by Social Concerns.
A call for volunteers will be published in the parish bulletin and in the parish calendar on the website. If you would like to volunteer, contact Maureen McLoughlin at 914.946.9334 or email MMCL16@optonline.net. Volunteers are assigned on a first come, first serve basis.

Dear Friend:
We want to thank you for helping us when we needed it most. By providing a meal for our families in the last month you supported the House, our families, and some of our favorite local businesses.
In recent weeks RMHGHV has worked closely with state and local officials, community partners and Maria Fareri Children's Hospital at Westchester Medical Center to navigate the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic and the rapidly changing environment. As we do so, our top priority has remained focused on the health and well-being of our guest families, staff and the communities we serve.
Due to the onging concerns about the potential spread of COVID-19, we reached the difficult decision to temporarily close RMHGHV on Friday, April 3, 2020. We will continually assess the situation and re-open as soon as it is safe to do so.
Many of you have asked how you can help and we appreciate that more than you know. Please consider making a donation to our "We'll Be Back" campaign that will help us with the funds we will need to re-open the House. Find the campaign here: give.rmh-ghv.org/well-be-back.
We cannot wait to re-open and see all of our favorite volunteers again but for now, we hope you and your family remain healthy and safe.
Sincerely,
The Ronald McDonald House
of the Greater Hudson Valley

Thank You to our volunteer cooks!
08.14.21 - Another wonderful meal prepared for the families staying at Ronald McDonald House. Led by Chef Anna assisted by sous- chefs,
Irene Corsini, Joann Lanza and Angela Giustino. Menu included: BBQ chicken, mashed potatoes, candied carrots and farm fresh corn on the cob and of course dessert!
Hope these meals provided a little comfort, sustenance and joy to the families at Ronald Mc Donald House.
Thank you note from Ronald McDonald House:
You made life just a little easier during this stressful time for our families, because it means they will have more time with their children.
After spending long hours caring for their hospitalized children, the last thing families want to do is cook. They often eat on the run, grabbing whatever they can quickly and don’t think of their own health. Providing
a meal to these families is a way to care for them so they can care for their children.
