Community Outreach
La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries of Columbus, Georgia is proud to partner with Ronald McDonald house to provide comfort for their families. On March 10th, La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries of Columbus, Georgia delivered four chairs and four ottomans to the Ronald McDonald House to provide comfortable seating in the guest's rooms.
Keeping Families Comfortable
The La-Z-Boy contribution to RMHC will include annual furniture donations to all Ronald McDonald Houses and Ronald McDonald Family Rooms in Canada and the United States, as well as a cash contribution to RMHC. Over the next few years, this will add up to thousands of pieces of furniture, consisting of stationary and motion sofas, loveseats and sectionals, occasional tables and other wood furniture, as well as ottomans, accent chairs and of course, recliners. In addition, an excited corps of volunteers made up of the employees of La-Z-Boy Incorporated, together with La-Z-Boy’s retail partners across North America, will contribute comfort to RMHC in other ways.
“Comfort is more than a tagline at La-Z-Boy, it’s a commitment. The true value of this partnership goes beyond the furniture we will provide and extends into the local support, fundraising and volunteerism we will offer the individual Ronald McDonald Houses and their participating families, who are so in need of compassionate care,” said Kurt Darrow, president and CEO of La-Z-Boy.
Ronald McDonald House Program
The Ronald McDonald House program provides families with a “home away from home” while their children receive treatment in a nearby hospital or medical facility. Here, family members can sleep, eat, relax and find support from other families in similar situations. Since 1974, Ronald McDonald Houses have helped more than 10 million families in need. There are currently 174 Ronald McDonald Houses in North America.
Ronald McDonald Family Room
The Ronald McDonald Family Room program provides a home-like haven inside hospitals, offering families of critically ill children an opportunity to reflect, shower or rest without leaving their child’s side. There are currently 70 Ronald McDonald Family Rooms in North America.
