Students to Serve at Ronald McDonald House

About 25 Alma College students from New Life Campus Ministry (formerly Trinity Bible Fellowship), Students Offering Service and Zeta Sigma will serve dinner and do clean-up work April 1 at the Ronald McDonald House in the Detroit Medical Center adjacent to Children's Hospital of Michigan in Detroit.

The Ronald McDonald House provides a home-away-from-home service for parents with hospitalized children. The students will serve individual meals for the residents while also providing cleaning services.

"It's often hard for families to take care of dinner, so there are lots of opportunities to provide home-cooked meals for the families," says Alma senior Brandon Gostomski.

You can then integrate your real world experiences into your academic programs and your future career.
