Virtual Handbag Hullaballoo Helps Ronald McDonald House Charities

Presented by Hometown-Motors, Inc.

The Central Ohio Ronald McDonald House, near Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, provides a place to stay for families who have a child admitted in the hospital.

McDonald’s Jan Detty says in 2019, 158 families from Pickaway, Pike and Ross County were served by the Ronald McDonald House. The Central Ohio RMH is the largest in the world with 137 rooms.

R.H.F. Enterprises, which owns and operates McDonald’s restaurants in Chillicothe, Circleville, Greenfield and Waverly, has hosted Handbag Hullaballoo as a fundraiser for RMHC the last four years and the 2020 event is Thursday September 17th.

Handbag Hullaballoo is a game played much like bingo, and the prizes awarded are upscale designer handbags by Kate Spade, Michael Kors, Coach and more.

The Chillicothe Handbag Hullaballoo raised $32,000 for the RMH last September.

While seating at the Christopher Conference Center is sold out, this year’s event will also be held virtually.

The $50 virtual tickets can be purchased at www.rmhc-centralohio.org.
