Elizabeth Malvasia Collects Nearly 1,000 Books for Ronald McDonald House!

To say that the Southern Paradise Ball fundraiser for Ronald McDonald House was a success would be an understatement! Just over 900 books were collected and sent to fill the house's two libraries. A spokesperson for the house was on-hand the evening of Sunday April 17th to accept the overwhelming donation and shared with all those in attendance that "a national book selling franchise hosted a book drive for us this year and collected less than half of what Elizabeth was able to rally from her team".

One successful event behind her, Elizabeth is already at work on her next RMDH endeavor. She is the key-note speaker at the grand opening of the Charlotte Ronald McDonald house! She will also be working with the teen volunteer teams in the Charlotte and Columbia houses, instilling in them the desire to truly change lives through volunteering!
