“It was incredible to see our community members join together to support families with critically ill children and help healing happen,” said Executive Director Mara Leong-Maguinez. “This event would not be possible without the support of our sponsors, donors, volunteers, and so many generous advocates in the community.”

Attendees enjoyed music, entertainment, and a leisurely stroll around the Rose Bowl loop. Walk for Kids also featured Walkers Village with giveaways, arts and crafts, food trucks, and interactive games for children of all ages.

Ronald McDonald House Pasadena is a home-away-from-home for families with critically-ill children, keeping them close to one another, their doctors, and needed medical care. The House is built on the simple idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on the health of their child not where they can afford to stay, where they will get their next meal where they will lay their head at night to rest.

Ronald McDonald House Pasadena is a program of the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Southern California. For more information, please visit our website at www.rmhcsc.org/pasadena
