It’s The Great Pumpkin, RMHC!

On Saturday, October 26, 2024, Bucciferro Family McDonald’s in Beloit hosted the 17th Annual Great Pumpkin Giveaway. 1,000 pumpkins were handed out to local families, and 97¢ Big Macs reigned supreme! 

Hundreds of children, dressed in creative costumes, enjoyed a spooktacular day taking photos, getting their faces painted, and participating in candy-filled games and activities organized by local community groups. The event featured a special appearance by the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile. 

The Care Mobile is a 40-foot, 26,000-pound pediatric clinic on wheels that provides essential healthcare services to children in underserved communities. Sophia Melgar, RMHC Madison’s Volunteer Services Manager, and Stephanie Hayden, RMHC-Madison’s CEO, were present alongside Care Mobile nurse Shannon Belmonte and nurse practitioner Toni Ellingson. Hayden shared, “It’s always a joy to bring the Care Mobile to events like the Great Pumpkin Giveaway where we can showcase the program and hand out goodies to the community it serves”. 

The Care Mobile team distributed candy and answered questions about the program’s services, reminding families that the Care Mobile is here to support their healthcare needs all year round.
