LVC Companies announced that donations from its 2024 holiday season fundraiser benefiting Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) reached a reported total $30,000. 

The fundraising total includes LVC employee contributions, matching funds from LVC Companies, and a donation from Luther Bloomington Acura Subaru during RMHC’s Give to the Max Day Campaign. According to the announcement, the funds will help the organization provide lodging, meals, and more to families with seriously ill children seeking medical care away from home.

“Our mission of providing a comfortable home away from home for families with sick kids would not be possible without the support of partners like LVC who involve their employees in their charitable giving efforts and match their contributions” said Jill Evenocheck, CEO and president, RMHC Upper Midwest. “When combined with another match from Luther Automotive, the dollars — and the impact — really add up. Our sincere thanks to everyone involved for actively supporting our mission. We are so grateful.”

The donations continue a longstanding tradition for LVC President and CEO Bert Bongard, who marks his 26th year of Christmastime donations to RMHC, the announcement states. 

“My LVC family and I are honored to continue our long history of commitment and support to the Ronald McDonald House’s mission of providing hope and healing for families facing extremely difficult and challenging situations,” said Bongard. “We also thank Luther Automotive for their generous contribution, which further increased the impact of our holiday giving.”
