Fundraisers
Looking for a great way to help your organization, school, other group help the environment and a great charity cause?
Story Book Fundraiser:
Story books transform us to a make believe world regardless
of our age. We never forget the special time when all was safe and
wonderful while reading or listening to our favorite fairy tale. At the
Ronald McDonald House of Corpus Christi we are reminded each
day of the rarity of our families being able to take a moment just to
breathe and relax from the care of a critically ill child.
With this thought in mind, we are creating storybook murals in our
25 rooms to put a smile on the guests while staying at “our house”. An
artistic rendition of classic fairy tales will brighten each room and also
assist us in providing a healthier environment by eliminating any dust or
residue that collects on wall hangings.
To celebrate our 20th Anniversary, we are placing 25 rooms up for
“adoption” for an annual donation. This is an excellent opportunity to:
- Showcase your company
Acknowledge employees,
Honor or Memorialize family and friends, or
Just place a smile in someone’s heart while they focus on the health of their child
Pop Tabs Fundraiser:
Collecting aluminun pop tabs helps for the following reasons:
* Appeals to all ages * Clean & Convienient * Easy to remove * Ecologically Smart * Project friendly
They add up quick....most of all, they help our families! Just tab counting...
1 inch = 1 Pop Tab * 1 foot = 12 Pop Tabs * 1 meter = 40 Pop Tabs

We have small houses available to collect tabs in. You may also schedule tours of our home for your students, families, or staff. Possibly, we can arrange for Ronald McDonald himself to visit your campus!

The Ronald McDonald House always needs items for the continued operation and maintenance of the House. We would greatly appreciate your contributions. If there are items you can donate please drop them off at the House, or give us a call at (361) 854-4073.
