ST. LOUIS – The Harris-Stowe State University athletic administrators spent Monday morning volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House.

Assistant Athletic Director for Community Partnerships and Fan Experience Michael Cook stated, "We don't just talk about it or ask our student-athletes to commit to community service, our athletic administration staff also walks the walk. #GRINDHOUSESTL #TOGETHERWEWILL #WALKITLIKEWETALKIT"

We exist so families can get better together is the mission of the Ronald McDonald House Charities. RMH puts the needs of children and families first. Amazingly, RMH provides a home for families who need a bed for tonight, tomorrow, and until their children heal. It is here that a community of love joins together because no sick child should be alone and no family should be apart and thanks to the donations and all volunteers, they won't be.

In 2021, the Ronald McDonald House Programs tallied 17,456, 7,479 families served, 7,740 children served and 6.1 million dollars saved by the families.
