Beef Farmers of Ontario helping families


 

Beef Farmers of Ontario is helping with Ronald McDonald House Charities locations across Ontario by providing beef for meal programs and volunteer service to help nourish families staying close to their children while receiving medical care.


Beef Farmers of Ontario said it is making a significant financial commitment to the four Ronald McDonald House locations in London, Hamilton, Toronto and Ottawa. 


BFO board directors and staff will volunteer time preparing meals for families through RMHC meal programs at all four Ontario Houses throughout the summer.


“This partnership reflects the values of Ontario beef farmers and our commitment to giving back to the communities we serve,” said Jason Leblond, president of Beef Farmers of Ontario. 


“As farmers, we understand the importance of caring for others and the role a nutritious meal can play in bringing comfort and connection. 


“We are honoured tos upport Ronald McDonald House Charities and the families who rely on 

these Houses during some of the most difficult times in their lives. "Through this initiative, Ontario beef farmers are proud to provide not only high-quality Ontario beef, but also our time and support.”


Each year, Ronald McDonald House Charities supports thousands of families by providing a place to stay close to their hospitalized child, helping ease the emotional and financial burden of accessing medical care away from home.
