Retirement community supports Ronald McDonald House in Windsor

A local retirement home helped spread the love this Valentine's Day at the Ronald McDonald House Charities Windsor House.

Residents and staff from Seasons Royal Oak Village Retirement Community assembled boxes of tasty treats for guests and donated much-needed household items.

“At Seasons Royal Oak Village, we believe in the power of community and compassion,” said Tammy Roberts, General Manager, Seasons Royal Oak Village. “Our residents and team members had a wonderful time visiting Windsor House and delivering these goods for Valentine’s Day. It’s through these community support initiatives we hope to bring a little light and hope to those that need it.”

This is not the first time the retirement home supported the Ronald McDonald House. They've prepared meals for the home and donated household items during previous initiatives.
