RX-Club of Houston December Ronald McDonald Santa Store Meeting Participation Thread
Hey guys,
The holidays are quickly approaching which means the RX-Club of Houston's annual "Ronald McDonald House Santa Store" charity drive is even closer!
With this in mind I would like your input on whether or not we will be able to make this year a success. I know many of us have faced unique hardships this year which might affect donation participation.
Please let me know by responding to this poll ASAP if you will participate or not. I would be happy to continue coordination of this annual event on behalf of the club, however we need to be assured we will have sufficient participation to make it a success.
If you have any questions, please email me,
Happy Holidays,
Lori - Email me.
All responses need to be recieved no later than NOVEMBER 19th 2008 to determine if further event planning is necessary.

One response. Wow.
I guess some of you are going to be getting a lump of coal in your stocking this year. Despite the poor responses here, we got enough responses on our local forum to go forward with the collection. Here is my announcement I made over there.
Hey guys,
Just wanted to touch base and let you know how excited I am that we will be able to help those in need once again this year! Below you will see a brief description of the Santa Store concept and the items needed this year.
NEW gifts are needed for ALL AGES, including premature infants, teenagers, and adults before December 7th. Below is a sample of items needed for the RMH Houston Santa Store:
- Infants – Toys, gift baskets w/pacifiers, rattles, bottles, blankets
- Toddlers – Toys
- Children – Toys, sports related items (please no Play-dough or games with small pieces)
- Teenagers – Jewelry, DVD players, DVD’s, CD’s, Purses, wallets, sports items, electronic hand games
- Moms - Gift Baskets, jewelry, cologne, purses
- Dads – Wallets, belts, shirts, jackets, socks, electric razors
- Misc. – Gift cards to various stores
The Ronald McDonald House Santa Store would not be possible without the support from caring individuals like you!”
Happy Holidays to you and yours, see you on December 2nd!!!
