STATISTICS
There are chapters in 52 countries
7,200 bedrooms are given out each night around the
world
This saves an estimated $257,000,000 each night.
43 care-mobiles (mobile dental clinic) across 6 countries
For each Happy Meal sold, McDonald’s donates 1 cent.
This doesn’t seem like a lot but translates into more
than $10,000,000 each year, just from happy meals
The spare change that you put in the donation box at
restaurants adds up to more than $28,000,000 each
year.
LOCAL HISTORY
In 1981 the Junior Service League of Sioux Falls
adopted the Ronald McDonald house as their
official project. In 1983 the property was
purchased and on December 21, 1983 the first
Ronald McDonald House in Sioux Falls was
opened, at 2001 South Norton Ave, the 55th in the
world.
TODAY
There are two Ronald McDonald Houses in Sioux Falls. An
8 bedroom house near Avera and an 18 bedroom
house near Sanford Children’s Hospital. These houses
are open to all families whose have children under 21
that are receiving treatment and no one is denied.
December of this year will be the 30th anniversary of the
Ronald McDonald house in South Dakota
Every year SDSU and NDSU compete for a pop tab
traveling trophy to see who can collect the most.

Easier for kids to collect
Why does this help?
Pop tabs are recycled for money to support the
houses

tab donations

You might need their help someday
