Calling all cooks

The Ronald McDonald House of Tampa Bay is looking for people to join a "casserole club" to provide food for families staying in one of the three houses in St. Petersburg and Tampa.

People interested in donating a homemade casserole can call Ronald McDonald family coordinator Lynn Lippincott at (727) 821-8961, ext. 7694 for details.

Families whose children are hospitalized or receiving outpatient treatment stay in the houses for free or for a nominal fee. There are kitchen facilities in the houses where families can cook their own meals or eat those provided by others.
