McHappy Day was a record-breaking success across the country.
McDonald’s Canada says over $11.3 million was raised for Ronald McDonald House Charities and other local children’s charities in communities across Canada.
Officials say each purchase made last Thursday contributed to the record-breaking fundraising total, showing how small actions can make a big difference to support families when they need it most.
In our region, over $91,000 was raised.
This year marked the 31st McHappy Day in Canada, bringing the grand total to over $111.3 million raised to-date.
