Red Shoe Society

(formerly Young Professionals)

The RMHC of WNY’s Red Shoe Society is a group of philanthropic individuals with a collective goal of supporting RMHC of WNY’s mission and initiatives by organizing awareness-building and fundraising events and having some fun while doing it!

We support the children and families of Ronald McDonald House Charities of WNY while creating a networking and social environment for young professionals and allowing them to develop their philanthropic leadership skills.

ENGAGE

EMPOWER

We engage, empower and inspire young professionals to participate in philanthropic and leadership endeavors and energize a new generation of volunteers for RMHC of WNY.

What We Do

Our group offers various ways to become involved, and our members make a positive impact on the lives of others to become leaders in our community.

Some of our events include:

Annual Meat Raffle (held in the Spring)
Annual Buffalo Bisons Game Night at Sahlen Field (Summer)
Volunteering at RMHC of WNY’s Annual 5K Run (Summer)
“Happy Hour with a Purpose” mixers (throughout the year)
“Meal Makers” (formerly Cooks for Kids)” night

Red Shoe Society members are encouraged to make a meaningful gift each year to support the general operations of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Western New York.

What does “meaningful” mean? That’s different for each person. Each gift is truly appreciated by the families that utilize RMHC services, regardless of its size.

Every member has their financial circumstances, which can change from one year to the next. Whether your gift is $10, $25, $100, or more, it makes a difference to sick children and their families. Plus, you can spread your gift out over the year by choosing the “monthly gift” option.

Make a Difference for Families & Children

Parents don’t know when their children will need medical help. But they should know they can always access the care they need. And with your help, we can support them all throughout their journey.
