McDonald’s Thursday

Every third Thursday of each month, the Logan Strong Foundation will provide Happy Meals to The Bernard & Millie Duker Children’s Hospital at Albany Medical Center

$500 per month

“We are so grateful to the Logan Strong Foundation for all that they do to enhance our patient experience all year long, but their monthly delivery of McDonald’s Happy Meals is certainly one of our favorites! These Happy Meals bring immediate smiles to the faces of our kids, most often on difficult days. It creates a sense of normalcy, even for a moment. Our kids (and a few parents!) enjoy these Happy Meals knowing someone cares deeply about their well-being. Thank you for this simple act of kindness, for brightening our days, and for making such a positive difference in the lives of those we care for.”

— Rob Saba, Assistant VP, Grateful Patients and Families, Albany Medical Center Foundation

The Logan Strong Foundation (LSF) is excited to offer a sponsorship opportunity for businesses seeking to make a positive impact in their community. This initiative, in partnership with McDonald’s at 1602 Western Ave, Albany NY, aims to provide 100 Happy Meals each month to children fighting cancer and other illnesses at the Bernard and Millie Duker’s Children’s Hospital at Albany Medical Center.

Termed “McDonald’s Thursdays,” this effort aims to bring moments of happiness to children undergoing treatment. With a contribution of $500, along with handling the pickup and delivery of Happy Meals, sponsors will be invited for a visit to the Children’s Hospital to witness the impact of their contribution and interact with the staff, children, and families. In addition to this heartwarming experience, sponsorship benefits include community engagement, brand visibility, and positive public relations.

McDonald’s Thursdays are the third Thursday of each month. Pick up is at 11:30 am at McDonald’s at 1602 Western Ave, Albany NY 12203, and delivery at noon to Albany Med, Physicians Pavilion Parking Lot 43 New Scotland Ave, Albany, NY 12208. A week before your chosen date, we kindly request that you share the names and contact information of three to five individuals from your organization. These individuals will be responsible for carrying out the pickup, delivery, and visit to Albany Med. An LSF Board Member will be accompanying you as well.
