Smiles are always free at McHappy day, and the Drumheller McDonald’s pulled off another successful one.
McHappy Day was on Wednesday, May 11, and is a tradition of helping the community. Funds raised at McHappy Day go to Ronald McDonald House Charities.
Summer Manca, owner of the Drumheller and Stettler McDonald’s, explains a portion of their sales at McHappy Day, as well as donations and sale of special items go towards the charity.
Last year they were able to raise $4,782 in Stettler and $5,740 in Drumheller. This year they topped both, raising $4,950 in Stettler and $6,093 in Drumheller, for a total of $11,043.
Along the way, they had help from volunteers at the restaurant who supported the rush as community members showed their support, one meal at a time. They also provided a lot of fun.
“Amazing community support for a great cause. So inspiring to see the community spirit in action and everyone so willing to support RMHC Alberta! We are so proud to be a part of it,” said Greg and Summer Manca at the conclusion of McHappy Day.
