On Saturday, April 25, 2026, supporters, community leaders, partners, and friends of Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Central Illinois gathered at the Crowne Plaza Springfield for an unforgettable evening of celebration, entertainment, and impact.

This special evening honored four decades of keeping families close when children need medical care. Guests enjoyed casino games, dueling pianos, and a meaningful program featuring a powerful family story, while also reflecting on the history of RMHCCI and the vital partnership of McDonald’s owner-operators.

More than a celebration, Red Shoe Gala Springfield - Celebrating 40 Years was an opportunity to invest in the future of our mission. Proceeds from the evening help Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Central Illinois provide essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing when children need healthcare.
