Staff from JD Parties recently visited Ronald McDonald House Charities in Birmingham to unveil their bedroom sponsorship given in recognition for raising over £17,000 for the Charity. A bedroom sponsorship for JD Parties will also be held at the Ronald McDonald House in Manchester.
JD Parties, is part of one of the country’s leading events companies, C & H Catering. They raised funds for Ronald McDonald House Charities at their shared Christmas parties in Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool. Funds were raised at each of their parties through the silent auction and charity fun casino on the night.
Ronald McDonald House Charities provides free ‘home away from home’ accommodation which enables seriously ill children to have their families close by when they are undergoing treatment to maintain a degree of normal family life. The Charity’s dedicated teams of staff and volunteers welcome families to stay for days, weeks and even years, and help them to feel as at home as possible.
Natalie Wood, Corporate Fundraiser at Ronald McDonald House Charities, says:
“We are thrilled to be able to commemorate JD Parties support with a room sponsorship. Their donation of £17,000 will make a huge difference to us. In 2017 Ronald McDonald Houses across the UK provided accommodation to over 8,000 families across the UK, supporting them when they needed it most. We simply could not provide our vital service without the wonderful support from companies like JD Parties.”
Andrew Gentles MD of JD Parties added “We are delighted to support such a worthy cause and to see that the money raised will be put to such good use. Having worked closely with Ronald McDonald House for a number of years we appreciate the service they offer to families at what are most difficult times. We are proud to announce that they will also be the beneficiary from our fundraising activities from our Christmas Parties at ICC, Birmingham, Tatton Park & Aintree Racecourse this year!”
