The water pipe that broke at the Ronald McDonald house in Minneapolis forced 15 families from their temporary home. Water extensively damaged 15 or 45 rooms at the house that typically serves 5,000 families a year. The good news is the toys donated for families staying at the house were not damaged. Next week, plan to learn more about the Ronald McDonald houses during these broadcasts. You can learn more at rmhs.org.
