SFAF NJ x Ronald McDonald House Charity PROVIDENCE Meals for Love

By Selina Liu

On March 24, 2024, our team visited the Rhode Island Ronald McDonald House to cook for over 30 families. Together, we prepared spaghetti and meatballs, beef stew, clam chowder, fruit salad, brownies, and lemonade.

In the bustling kitchen, we worked in harmony, chopping, stirring, and laughing. Alongside the meal, we donated snacks, batteries, and bed covers.

As we set the table, faces lit up with gratitude. Families gathered, and we shared not just food but moments of connection. It was humbling to see the impact of our efforts.

Leaving that evening, our hearts were full. We had made a meaningful difference in the lives of those facing challenges, showing that simple acts of kindness can bring immense joy. As we drove away, we carried with us the warm memories of a day spent in service to others.
