My Why – Gretchen Spires
House Operations Manager - Ronald McDonald House Charities of Northeast Indiana
I AM one of those people! You may be asking – What do you mean you ARE one of those people? That love their job! I love coming to The Ronald McDonald House each and every day.
I enjoy being able to come to work and know that I have been able to make a difference in someone’s day. It may be in a small way – getting someone an extra blanket and pillow so they can get a couple hours of sleep or something bigger – helping them connect to the right organizations once they can take their child home.
No two days are ever the same at The Ronald McDonald House. I may be helping unload a donation, clean a room, cook a meal, and or just sit and talk with a mom or dad. That is what I love, being able to help in so many different ways. Some days are longer and harder than others but at the end of the day being able to help and make a difference for someone is ALL that matters!
