Nothnagle Donates to Ronald McDonald Charities


Nothnagle REALTORS® presented a donation to Ronald McDonald House Charities on September 14, 2011. The donation was a result of proceeds raised at Nothnagle’s Annual Golf Tournament. Over 140 agents and guests participated in the tournament held at Durand Eastman Golf Course on August 15, raising $3,500 for the charity.

Ronald McDonald House Charities of Rochester has two locations in the area. The first one is a 20 bedroom house located at 333 Westmoreland Drive, where Nothnagle presented the check, and The House Within the Hospital in the Intensive care Unit at Golisano Children’s Hospital at Strong. The houses are specifically meant for families of children who are in the hospital due to illness, cancer, injuries or accidents, as a comfortable home away from home with minimal expenses. The House on Westmoreland has a three work station kitchen that invites volunteers in to cook for the families staying at the house. There are over 300 houses worldwide that help to alleviate financial and emotional stress for families seeking care for their children at state-of-the-art medical facilities away from home.

“This is such a worthy cause to donate to because it really helps the families of sick or injured children to be able to stay close and save on expenses. We are proud to have had such a successful event this year and I am happy to be giving it to such a worthwhile charity,” said Armand D’Alfonso, President & CEO.
