“Christmas in July” for Ronald McDonald House

Posted: Updated:
TOLEDO, Ohio -

Sunday was Christmas in July for a well-known charity. The expo at Admiral's American Grill included raffles and more than a dozen vendors selling products to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House.

"It was a way for us to give back to the community and to get people together and have a good time in the holiday spirit," says Cortney McDade.

The Ronald McDonald House of Northwest Ohio has been helping families of hospitalized children for almost three decades. They are currently raising money to build a bigger house for those they help.
