Star Foundation and Business Impact Group Partner with Famous Dave's to Serve Meal at Ronald McDonald House

(Chanhassen, MN) July 14, 2008 - The Star Foundation and Famous Dave’s, along with 11 Business Impact Group employees had the privilege of participating in the “Cooks for Kids” program at the Ronald McDonald House of Minneapolis.

Cooks for Kids is designed to help the 48 families who stay at the House while their children are undergoing treatment for life-threatening illnesses at area hospitals. After a long and often exhausting day at the hospital, families look forward to coming back to the House for a “home-away-from-home” cooked meal.

Famous Dave’s provided the food, while BIG employees enjoyed serving the meal and meeting the remarkable families that call Ronald McDonald House home.

Tracey Walke, Human Resources Generalist from BIG said, “You just can’t walk away from something like this without feeling grateful for the good health we so often take for granted in our own families, but also being amazed at the community that Ronald McDonald House has created.”
