A Mother’s Day celebration in the Ronald McDonald Family Room at the Ladish Co. Foundation Center recognized moms with gifts and treats, extending beyond just one day to make sure all had a chance to feel the love.

Festivities lasted for a couple of weeks before the holiday so moms who couldn’t be at the Family Room on Sunday could also be celebrated. To celebrate this meaningful holiday, a variety of sweet treats were available to everyone, along with a range of self-care and relaxation-themed items, including chap sticks, lotions, blankets, candles, teas, journals, and adult coloring books.

The mothers who visited the Family Room on Sunday shared their appreciation for this space, and they said that the gifts and sweets were thoughtful. One mom mentioned she is very thankful that she was able to visit with her son on Mother’s Day in a wonderful, welcoming environment.

Another mother got teary-eyed and shared that this is the first time in awhile she felt recognized on Mother’s Day.

A third raved, “What a great Mother’s Day with thoughtful gifts and with people I love.”

Providing many of the comforts of home and plenty of opportunities to connect, the Ronald McDonald Family Room is a welcoming, home-like environment for family and friends supporting a loved one receiving treatment at Rogers. Learn more here.
