DURHAM, N.C.—Over the past 11 years the Duke men’s lacrosse program has developed a close relationship with the Ronald McDonald House in Durham. The Blue Devils regularly cook meals for the families at RMHC as well as participate in holiday gift-wrapping and giving. Recently, head coach John Danowski and the Duke men’s lacrosse team committed to sponsor a guest suite at the Ronald McDonald House to assist some of the heroes – the 55 seriously ill children and their families who live on their campus every day.
A guest suite features a bedroom with two double beds, a living room with a television, a pull-out sofa, a table where families can eat as well as a small kitchen with a stove and refrigerator and a washer and dryer.
