NEWS RELEASE
STEVENSON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL FOUNDATION
*************************
McDonald’s Canada franchisees and crews across the country are ready to celebrate McHappy Day, an annual day of community giving in support of Ronald McDonald Houses and other local charities, one of those being Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation.

McHappy Day continues to play a large role in providing Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) with the funds needed to support houses and family rooms serving thousands of families each year.

Since McHappy Day was first celebrated in 1977, McDonald’s Canada, its franchisees, and generous guests have contributed nearly $66 million for Ronald McDonald Houses and local Canadian charities.

Two locations in Alliston (137 Young St. and 30 Dunham Dr.) and one location in Angus (231 Mill St.) will be participating in McHappy Day in support of RMHC and local charities in the New Tecumseth community. New this year: On McHappy Day, McDonald’s will donate a portion of all menu items (sales) to help RMHC families and other community charities.

A portion of the proceeds from all three locations in Alliston will be donated to Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation.

When: May 10, 2023

Where: 137 Young St., Alliston; 30 Dunham Dr., Alliston; 231 Mill St., Angus

MacKinnon Restaurants recognizes the fundraising goals for annual equipment needs and the redevelopment of Stevenson Memorial Hospital in New Tecumseth and has chosen Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation as one of the benefactors for this year’s McHappy Day to assist in those fundraising goals.
