Описание: Rachel Macaulay serves as the Vice President of Philanthropy for Ronald McDonald House Southwestern Ontario. I don’t know if you are aware of, have volunteered for, or been supported by Ronald McDonald House.
If you have, you will know just how impactful the work that they do is. Over the years, and from time to time, I’ve had a few opportunities to volunteer with various groups there - working in the kitchen to prepare meals for the families who find themselves living at Ronald McDonald House. In the kitchen, you’re kind of behind the scenes - you see the compassion, dignity and care that the parents and families staying there receive - on what are likely the lowest, hardest and scariest days of their lives. The positive impact these staff members and volunteers offer these families is immeasurable, it can’t be described.
Currently, Rachel is leading a historic capital campaign to double the House's capacity so they won’t ever have to turn families away when they need help the most.
Rachel has more than 13 years experience in philanthropy and communications. She has built her career around the belief that transformational giving changes the giver as much as the recipient.

As International Women's Day approaches, Rachel asked to come on the show to share a message that is championing. "Give Boldly, Gain Boldly" — it’s a call for women and their allies to step into strategic philanthropy and see it not just as an act of generosity, but as a powerful vehicle for personal growth, professional influence, and community impact.
She’s here to tell us all about it - so let’s go.
