DALLAS, Texas -– SWC Group selected Ronald McDonald House of Dallas (RMHD) as their third quarter 2017 Charities of Choice. Employees from their Carrollton, TX office volunteered to prepare and serve breakfast for families staying at the Dallas house, and raised a total of $1,105 in donations.
“It costs RMHD approximately $125 per night to host a family, but they only ask families to contribute $15 night and will not turn anyone away who cannot pay,” says Jeff Hurt, CEO. “We choose to continue supporting RMDH in their mission, so they may continue to provide opportunities of closeness for families and their loved ones.”
Employees were separated into teams and competed to see who could raise the most money. Team members coordinated a number of different fund raising activities throughout the company floor. The team who raised the most money was awarded a paid volunteer day in order to serve lunch to the families at the RMHD. The winning group, the administrative “Consumer Account Resolution Team” selected the menu and submitted it for approval. On November 22, 2017 the team purchased, cooked and served the food, and cleaned the kitchen afterwards. It was a great team building experience for SWC Group employees.
"RMHD does great work to help out our local community and we are honored to donate funds for them, and thankful for the opportunity to serve those families in need,” says Hurt. “We look forward to volunteering with them again.”
