On Tuesday 21 March, a representative from Ronald McDonald House visited the Gore Campus.  She spoke about Ronald McDonald House and the importance of the service that they provide. The Ronald McDonald House and Ronald McDonald Family Room programmes take care of the practical things in life so families can focus on their child staying in a hospital away from home.  This helps to relieve stresses like paying for a place to sleep near the hospital, organising family meals and needing a friendly ear to listen on tough days.  It was such an honour for Alfonso Simmons, one of the Student Leadership Team, to present her with a cheque for $7110.28, which was the total of funds raised from all NZ Campuses on the recent Charity Day.
