McHappy Day is an annual fundraiser that supports children's health across Canada. Every year on the first Wednesday of May, McDonald's restaurants across the country donate a portion of their proceeds to local children's hospitals, including the Taber & District Health Foundation. Your support for McHappy Day raised $10,820.00 this year!
At the Taber & District Health Foundation, we are proud to be a part of this incredible initiative. The funds raised on McHappy Day go directly towards supporting children and families in our community to access vital health services. This year, funds will be used to purchase a specialized children’s treadmill and therapy equipment for children that utilize the services of Allied Health Services at the Taber Health Centre. These new resources (including books, games, puzzles, feeding supplies, toys, equipment, and play structures) will make play-based therapy sessions more engaging for both the children and their families we connect with, and provide a much broader range of environments for those children to learn, develop, and succeed in.
We would like to thank McDonald's and the community for their ongoing support of this important cause. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference in the lives of those we serve. Together, we can continue to support the health and well-being of our community's children.
Mark your calendars for the first Wednesday of May and join us in supporting McHappy Day. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of children in our community!
