  Audrey Buxton

  A High school senior in Springfield, Missouri, who volunteers with her local Ronald McDonald Care Mobile.
  
  “I have wanted to be a dentist for quite some time … and the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile seemed like a great place to have exposure to the field and also help children at the same time.”

  Les White

  The executive director of the Sydney Children’s Hospital in Australia spreads the word about the Ronald McDonald House he helped to get build in 1991.
  
  “Many families say to me, ‘I just don’t know how I will cope,” Les explains. “So the first thing I do is tell them abut the Ronald McDonald House. They are immediately reassured to know they will receive not only comfortable accommodations but emotional support from staff, family and other families.”

  Yasemin Yuceturk

  This former journalist volunteers at the Ronald McDonald Room at the Marmara University Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, where she welcomes families and helps them feel at home.
  
  “You see and hear so much in the hospital. Families endure a great deal of sorrow, pain and sometimes hopelessness. Often they just need someone who will listen.”
