Thank you for your interest in joining the Ronald McDonald House Bay Area Red Shoe Society. The Red Shoe Society is currently on hiatus.
We are incredibly grateful to the young professionals, members, and Executive Board leaders who have supported Ronald McDonald House Bay Area through service, fundraising, advocacy, and community-building over the years. While the Red Shoe Society is not currently accepting new memberships or applications, there are still many meaningful ways to get involved and support families with critically ill children across the Bay Area. We invite you to explore volunteer opportunities, attend community events, and stay connected with the mission of Ronald McDonald House Bay Area as we continue keeping families close to the care and resources they need most.
“My mentors always told me to “pay it forward“ by becoming a mentor in the future. It is important for young professionals to create a bond between their mentors and with each other.”
“From having multiple chronic illnesses my entire life and being frequently in and out of the hospital (most if not all at LPCH), I gained an appreciation for everyone that has an impact on my care/stay. This includes those invisible roles and those that are unseen.”
“My family and community have taught me that helping others extends beyond financial contributions or material donations; it’s about taking meaningful action. And action means offering support and compassion to others unselfishly.”
“I didn’t realize how important the services the Ronald McDonald House provides until I had to relocate for my daughter’s life-saving medical care. As young professionals, we have the ability to help positively impact families going through the most difficult times of their lives.”
