RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES
What is RMH?
Ronald McDonald House Charities is a non-profit corporation that provides essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing when children need healthcare. RMHC helps families with sick children stay together and close to the medical care their child needs at leading hospitals worldwide. With over 380 Chapters in more than 62 countries and regions, Ronald McDonald House Charities provides access to quality healthcare and family-centered care.
​
Since 1979, Alpha Delta Pi has been committed to serving Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC). Over the course of our partnership, Alpha Delta Pi has contributed more than $8.9 million to this worthwhile cause. RMHC supports Ronald McDonald Houses, Care Mobiles, and Ronald McDonald Family Rooms in local communities and also funds grants to other nonprofit organizations whose programs focus on children in need.
​
Today, more than 300 Ronald McDonald Houses in 52 countries help keep families with seriously ill or injured children together when they need it most by offering them a comfortable, temporary residence in proximity to a medical facility. In addition to donating money to this worthwhile cause, many Alpha Delta Pi collegiate chapters and alumnae associations spend their time and energy volunteering at these houses.

A LETTER FROM OUR DIRECTOR OF PHILANTHROPY
Hadley Terry | Director of Philanthropy | Beta Epsilon Chapter
Alpha Delta Pi has been such a gift to me and this sisterhood truly has my heart!
Hey y’all!
​
My name is Hadley Terry and I serve as Beta Epsilon’s 2025 Director of Philanthropy. I am so lucky to be a part of a chapter that is passionate about service and I am honored to be able to serve all 506 of my sisters through this position. Alpha Delta Pi has been such a gift to me and this sisterhood truly has my heart!
Alpha Delta Pi nationally serves Ronald McDonald House Charities. The Ronald McDonald House provides a place for families to stay when they have a child in the hospital receiving critical care. Our chapter is lucky enough to have an RMH located just 10 minutes from our campus. Because of this proximity, we can have girls at the house daily completing many tasks such as cooking meals, cleaning, working at the front desk, and walking Alphie, the Golden Doodle our chapter donated to RMH back in 2017.
This past year, our chapter raised over $52,000 for Ronald McDonald House Charities and the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation. To make this possible, our chapter holds two major Philanthropy events each year. Our Pie-a-Pi Letter Writing Campaign takes place in the spring semester. At this event, all of our sisters gather at the Pi Palace and write letters to friends, family, and alumni asking them to sponsor a sister during our Pie-a-Pi event that takes place on campus in the following weeks. In the fall we host our chapter’s annual Boot Scootin BBQ. The event kicks off our University of South Carolina parent’s weekend with a night full of country music, BBQ, and a silent auction!
In addition to these two major events, we hold many small fundraising events on campus throughout the year such as bake sales and percent nights at local businesses.
Serving in this position is honestly a dream come true! Thank you for supporting our chapter through the endeavors that we are so passionate about!
XOXO,
Hadley
