Thread: Ryan Seacrest to Host Ronald McDonald House Charity Gala

Ryan Seacrest to Host Ronald McDonald House Charity Gala

As if he doesn’t host enough events, Ryan Seacrest has signed on for the Atlanta Ronald McDonald House Charities Hearts and Hands Gala on Saturday, October 24. The American Idol host is from Atlanta so it makes sense that he’d like to give back to his hometown for this black-tie affair which will include live entertainment and a silent auction.

President/CEO of Atlanta Ronald McDonald House Charities, Linda M. Morris seems very optimistic about the gala: “We are grateful for the generosity and ongoing support of The Coca-Cola Company. And we are thrilled Coca-Cola’s longtime ambassador, Ryan Seacrest, will host the evening. Despite a tough economy, we expect this inaugural event will be successful in raising funds to support families in need at our two local Ronald McDonald Houses.

This year marks our 30th anniversary and this new event is a wonderful opportunity to raise awareness for Atlanta Ronald McDonald House Charities and the organization’s important work throughout the area.”

The Ronald McDonald House is such a worthy charity so I hope that they get a lot of donations and can continue to be so helpful and supportive to the families who have sick children (they provide accommodation for families who must travel in order to get medical help for their seriously ill or injured children).
