Special Events Volunteers

Have a Blast and Support a Great Cause by Volunteering at Some of Our Signature Events

We need your help. Over the course of the year, RMHC of Central Ohio runs nine major signature events and is given opportunities to partner with other local fundraisers. By becoming a special event volunteer, you will help raise awareness and funds for the families being served by the mission of our local Ronald McDonald House and Ronald McDonald Care Mobile. Please consider how you can help by volunteering at some of our events!
