Glass Painting for RMHC of Springfield

Members of the East Longmeadow community came
together to paint glass and benefit RMHC of Springfield

On Monday night, dozens of people were painting with a purpose in East Longmeadow.

The Ronald McDonald House of Springfield held a fun and interactive "Tipsy Paintbrush Night" where participants could enjoy a glass of wine and paint a glass, all benefitting RMHC. 

Volunteer coordinator Skochii Polchlopek spoke on behalf of the Ronald McDonald House to all of the participants, reminding them of the way they are changing families lives by supporting their mission. 

"We are there when the families need us when they want to be close to their children who are in the hospital," said Polchlopek. "We can accommodate 21 families and we work mostly with Baystate and Shriners and we also work with other families throughout the region who need us."

All of the funds raised will go directly to the families who are able to stay at the home free of charge.
