The Boys & Girls Club of Corvallis received a $6,000 grant from Ronald McDonald House Charities of Oregon and Southwest Washington (RMHC) to provide free dental care to children of low-income families in the Corvallis area. This grant was also matched by Ronald McDonald House Charities Global, for a total grant amount of $12,000.
RMHC partners with nonprofit programs in the community to support efforts to improve children's health with proper dental care. These grants are made possible by customer canister donations at McDonald's restaurants in the region.
