Raising $25,000 for 25 years
of togetherness!
On May 26, Ronald McDonald House Portland will celebrate 25 years of providing comfort to families of pediatric patients. We want to take this opportunity to look back on our 25-year history and celebrate all that is to come. We have a big birthday wish this year – to raise $25,000! This birthday wish comes at a time of great need. Join the thousands of other donors celebrating our 25th Birthday with a donation of $25– that’s $1 for each year of comfort, care, and compassion.
Celebrate With Us!
We believe 25 years of serving families is something to celebrate, so we’re kicking off the birthday festivities early! From May 4-26, we’ll reflect on our history, celebrate our future, and create some fun for everyone with a virtual spirit week!
Though we wish this celebration could happen in person, we know at this time, it’s best to come together while staying apart. To make this celebration all we dreamed of, we’re hoping you can send your love from a distance. Pictures are encouraged, having fun is required!
Show us your RMHC Maine pride by emailing pictures to our marketing manager, Rachael, tagging us (Facebook @RMHCME and Instagram @RMHCMaine), or messaging pictures on either platform.
Spirit Week Schedule
Week 1 (May 4-9) Show Your Stripes
Wear stripes of any color (we’re partial to red and white 😉) or any RMHC swag.
Showing your stripes also means showing your RMHC pride. Post a sign in your window showing your support for RMHC Maine, take a picture with a prop, or find other creative ways to show your stripes.
Week 2 (May 10-16) Throwback
Yup, we’re going through our archives and throwing it back to 1995! Wear your favorite 90s attire, recreate a family photo from the 90s, or, for our longtime supporters, dig up old pictures and memories of the Portland House from long ago. Let’s reminisce!
Week 3 (May 17-23) Strive for 25
Get moving this week! Run, bike, walk or skip for 25 minutes, do 25 laps around your neighborhood or give us 25 jumping jacks every day this week – anything to keep you and your family healthy and active. After all, RMHC promotes healthy kids and healthy families! (Another way to Strive for 25 is to commit to a $25 donation supporting RMHC Maine!)
Week 4 (May 24-26) Birthday Week!
The day we’ve been celebrating is finally here– our May 26th birthday! Chalk, draw, dance, sing, and send Ronald McDonald House Portland a birthday message.
Use #RMHPturns25 to show us your spirit, or email photos
and videos directly to marketing@rmhcmaine.org.
