YUM! Cheeseburger Casserole was on the menu at Comer Children's Hospital's Ronald McDonald House this Wednesday.Students from Kelvyn Park HS put their culinary skills to the test chopping, dicing and mixing to put together a three course lunch for the families of children receiving treatment at Comer Children's Hospital.
While our casserole was cooking, Assistant
House Manager, Cathy Berk, took us on a tour of the amazing house that accomidates 22 families with all the comforts of home. With 4 RM Homes here in Chicago and over 200 total around the world, she explained that many families need only to stay a couple of days but families could stay the course of treatment required with one family staying at their location for a full year.
Students were struck by the homes beauty but also the thoughtfulness of the designers, house managers and volunteers to create such a supportive environment with customized storage pantries, game rooms, business center, every kind of support to make families feel comfortable.
Thank you to Cathy Berk and Ronald McDonald House Comer Children's Hospital for allowing us the opportunity to serve!
