Welcome to my Fundraising Page!
I am now in the second year of my tenure as a Board Member of the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Washington D.C. (RMHCDC) and this year I am serving as Chair of our annual fundraiser event, the Red Shoe Run Walk/Run 5K.
I continue to be honored to be part of this great organization. What motivates me about this organization is the simplicity of their mission: to ease the hardship of children's illness on a family. In the DC area, this mission is accomplished in 3 ways: 1) With 2 Ronald McDonald Houses on the campuses of Children's Hospital in DC and Inova Fairfax Hospital in Fairfax; 2) With 2 Ronald McDonald Living Rooms within the Children's Hospital in DC And Inova Fairfax Hospital in Fairfax; and 3) With Ronald McDonald Mobile, an initiative that provides mobile health, dental, and wellness care to children in need-based communities in Washington, DC.
Last year, RMHCD supported 5,803 children in their 3 core programs listed above. In the 2 Ronald McDonald houses in our area, 575 families were supported in the house's 33 rooms. While these statistics are impressive, there is room for growth and expansion to support more families in the future which is exactly what this race is all about.
So I thank you for supporting me to reach my fundraising goal to make an even bigger impact in the coming year! If you would like to join our team for this event, please register under "Team Pillai - 2019 Red Shoe Run" at the following registration link.
