Testone, Marshall & Discenza raises money for

Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central New York

Syracuse, N.Y. – Testone, Marshall & Discenza LLP, a certified public accounting firm in Syracuse, N.Y., recently donated more than $1,500 to Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central New York.

At the end of each year, the firm makes a donation to a local charity, based on money raised during the year. In 2009, Testone, Marshall & Discenza selected Ronald McDonald House Charities of CNY as its charity of choice. The firm raised the money through dress-down days and donations to the snack goods drawer.

An employee at Testone, Marshall & Discenza submitted Ronald McDonald House Charities of CNY as one of the possible charities to receive the donation because her mother had stayed at a Ronald McDonald House in Buffalo, N.Y., when the employee was hospitalized as a child.

The firm’s donation is the equivalent to providing funding for 101 guest-night stays at the CNY Ronald McDonald House.

About Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central New York: Ronald McDonald House Charities of CNY operates the 16-bedroom CNY Ronald McDonald House 24-hours a day, year-round as a “home away from home” for families whose children are hospitalized with serious illnesses or injuries. RMHC of CNY is planning to build a new, larger Ronald McDonald House that will allow the organization to help keep even more families with seriously ill children together.
