McHappy Day was a success. The Perth, Smiths Falls, Kemptville and Carleton Place restaurants brought in $30,500 for the Ronald McDonald House in Ottawa.
On May 2, more than 1,400 McDonald’s restaurants participated in the national fundraising initiative by donating one dollar from every Big Mac, Happy Meal and Hot McCafe Beverage sold.
McHappy Day helps over 25,000 Canadian families every year stay at Ronald McDonald Houses across Canada while their children are being treated at nearby hospitals.
