The Ronald McDonald House Charities of South Dakota supports families of critically ill children who are receiving treatment at a local hospital. As a part of our services, each family is provided with a blanket upon checking in. We have two Houses here in Sioux Falls, with a combined total of 29 rooms. This means we have a constant need to replenish our blanket supply.
We are not picky on type of blanket, whether it is a handmade tie blanket, handmade quilt, or newly purchased. Our only restriction is that we cannot accept used blankets, due to our immunocompromised population. You are able to create as many blankets as you would like! This is a great activity for anyone to participate in, regardless of age. We have staff at our Houses 24/7 who are able to accept doantions. Donations can be taken to: 825 S. Lake Ave (north of the Sanford Children's Castle) or 808 E. 24th Street (one block south of the Avera Orthopedic building). To volunteer, Express Interest below. For more information, contact Samantha at (605) 336-6398 Ext. 8 or Samantha@rmhcsodak.org.
