In 2021, more than $5 million was contributed by generous supporters of San Diego’s Ronald McDonald House. This vital funding not only kept their doors open during extremely difficult times, but it insured that care, comfort, and vital services could continue for families with a child in medical crisis.
To express their gratitude, The House hosted a reception and party to honor the most influential and generous benefactors of 2021, including Jeff Lepore, Michelle Bowdich, Halle Aiken, Lisa Betyar, Chuck Day, Hudson Drake, Mary Drake, and Trulette Clays.
