House Volunteer Spotlight

Molly Stood

Molly Stood has been volunteering at the House at Mercy Kids since November, and she has been an incredible addition to the team. Molly lives in Illinois but is currently pursuing a degree in Child and Family Development at Missouri State University in Springfield, Missouri. Her dedication to the Ronald McDonald House mission shows through her commitment to volunteering with us and her attention to detail in her work. We cannot thank her enough for choosing to pursue her passion for Child Life with us!

What is your favorite thing to do in the House? Get the rooms ready for new families to stay in. This task is really enjoyable for me to do, and it shows how big of an impact can be made in my weekly three-hour shift.

What do you enjoy in your free time? Extracurricular activities?

I enjoy spending time with friends and family, spending time outside, and volunteering. At home, I volunteer for the Elliestrong Forever foundation, and at school, I am involved in the Child Life Student Association, Hall Council, and Kindness Commission.
