| Welcome Summer Interns Each semester, we are so fortunate to have talented interns donating their time and talent to the House. Please join us in welcoming our summer interns.

Shaylee Hernandez is working with our Special Events Manager Pam Anderson. She is a senior at Indiana University studying Nonprofit Management and Fundraising. She first learned about the House through her sorority Alpha Delta Pi that nationally supports Ronald McDonald Houses. Shaylee is looking forward to helping to develop opportunities to support the House though fun events like our RMHI ProAm golf tournament. |

Dipa Patel is interested in becoming a volunteer administrator so working with Mary Friend is a great opportunity. She has a degree in Psychology from Indiana University and just earned a Certificate in Philanthropic Studies from the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. She is eager to help us identify ways to better use technology in administering our volunteer program.

Rachael Taylor and Josh Thien are the newest marketing interns and both will be helping Kelly Thien with various marketing projects, particularly social media. They have been friends for years and both are juniors studying Telecommunications at Indiana University. Interning at the House interested Rachael because keeping families together is very important to her. Josh likes the idea of being able to help improve people's lives.

Katherine Wozniak will also be working with Kelly Thien as our multimedia intern. As a senior at the University of Indianapolis studying Visual Communication Design, Katherine is excited about helping with our rebranding process. This involves converting all our marketing material to include our new "Togetherness Heals" message and design standards.

| Operations Update Media Inquiries If you receive a call from the media (TV, radio, or newspaper), you should transfer the call to either Kelly Thien, Director of Marketing (ext. 207) or Michelle Study-Campbell, CEO (ext. 211). If it is during the evening or the weekend please notify the manager on duty immediately. The manager will take the contact information for a return call and immediately notify Kelly or Michelle via their cell phones. Under no circumstances should anyone other than Kelly or Michelle provide any information in response to any media inquiries. Politely explain that you are not in a position to speak on behalf of the RMHI but that their contact information will be passed on to someone who can. Vacuums at Limestone Each time a guest borrows a vacuum cleaner, please make sure that it is documented on the log sheet. If the vacuum is not returned within a reasonable amount of time, please contact the guest and ask when we can expect it to be returned. With only three vacuums to share with the entire House, it is important we keep track of them. |

| Look Who Was Caught Rolling Out The Red Carpet 
Board member, Chuck Richmond, caught Guest Services Volunteer, Marge Vogel, demonstrating professionalism, respect and dignity at our Limestone location. Chuck reported: I dropped by the Limestone location for a visit. As I was walking around the front office looking to see which staff members were in their offices, Guest Services Volunteer, Marge Vogel asked "Have we met before?" Chuck added that Marge did not know who he was, and because he was looking into all the open offices, she could have asked the same question in multiple ways but chose a very friendly, respectful approach. Chuck stopped by Mary Friend's office before leaving to compliment the House for having such a great front line customer service representative representing the organization. Thank you Marge! __________________________________________________________ Congratulations, Marge! Your name was drawn this month in our Red Carpet Award drawing and your Crew's Carwash pass is in the mail. __________________________________________________________ Remember if you catch a volunteer or staff member rolling out the red carpet and demonstrating excellent customer service, please submit a nomination using the attached form listing the criteria. Printed copies of this form are also available in the front office at both Limestone and Riley. Each month, all nominations are eligible for a random drawing for a Crew's Carwash pass.
