Charity: Smile with Ronald on #mchappydaysg

Ronald Smiles
This year, 500 staff volunteers have hit the streets on 10 November to sell "Ronald Smiles" to raise funds to RMHC, Ronald McDonald House Charities. For those who are unaware, RMHC is an independent charity that has been running a "home-away-from-home" facility at NUH (National University Hospital) for families with children in intensive care since January this year.

I was lucky enough to be one of the bloggers invited to the flag off. The street sales was launched at Jem's McDonald. There were so many people in red. Deafening cheers filled the air, displaying the Mac family great volunteering spirit.
Happy
The 500-strong staff volunteers hit the streets of Singapore. Members of the public could buy a "Ronald Smile" for just S$2. It is apparent from their enthusiasm, the culture of giving back to the community is a integral party of McDonald's culture!
