Community Service:

Support the local Ronald McDonald house at North Central LEAD Provincial Conference in two different ways! 

First is collecting Wish List Items these need to be new and unopened items. Information can be found here: https://www.rmhcincinnati.org/get-involved/donate/donate-items/wish-list/ but their top five items are individually packaged snacks, toiletries (all sizes of shampoo, body wash, reiterate, etc.), Cereal boxes (full size & individual), toys for all ages and feminine care products. Other items are in their wishlist which chapter can order directly from that and show proof at the table if done that way. 

Second, we will be decorating welcome cards, providing a warm welcome to Cincinnati critically ill children and their families, but also reminding them that people they haven’t met care about them.
