My Nonprofit Reviews

My younger brother Mark served on the Board of Directors for nine years, during which time he took me to several charity and events when they were concurrent with my visits from Texas to WI. After his tragic death from a heart attack, we were invited to tour the home and presented with a framed picture collage of Mark donating his time and talents to this other family that had his heart. We fell in love with the purpose, the people, the passion and the programs, so we became donors in memory of Mark, to help make the new wing a reality. We were blessed as a family to tour the beautiful new additions at the House Warming, where we instantly felt Mark's presence and knew immediately why he was so grateful for his work with this magical place. The rooms were spacious and the family kitchens are such a gift. As a school counselor, I especially connected with the inclusive playground, where I felt compassion and belonging through a chair merry-go-round for children with mobility challenges and a roller slide for children with cochlear implants. The thoughtfulness that went into this incredible playground did not go unnoticed and will likely be appreciated and love for years and years to come. Thank you, RMHC, for capturing my brother's heart while it was still healthy and being HIS home away from home for all of those years. I can tell that he was well-loved there just like the families whom you host ... and I'm grateful.
