THE 4TH ANNUAL

® EveryRonald family and child that comes Ronald McDonald AnEvery Eventyear, Benefitting McDonald HousetoCharities of theHouse Ozarks.

Ronald McDonald House Charities helps children and their families right here in the Ozarks.

Charities of the Ozarks has a story, and no two stories are the same. To families, the Ronald McDonald House® provides a refuge. These are families whose seriously ill or injured children are facing trials no child should have to face. To children, the Ronald McDonald House Care Mobile® (fondly known as the Tooth Truck™) provides healthy smiles and a restored selfconfidence that cannot be contained.

Your generosity allows our families and children to continue to walk over the threshold of the Ronald McDonald Houses, or step up to the Tooth Truck and feel relieved, sheltered, and cared for.

We all walk a different path in life, but together we can keep the Ronald McDonald Houses open for families who need to be mere steps away from their seriously ill or injured children and the Tooth Truck on the road for children to be a short walk away from cavity-free smiles. Thank you for putting yourself in the shoes of these families and children. Thank you for taking steps to provide hope to those who need it most.

Over 2,600 families served.

Since opening in November of 2012, the Ronald McDonald House at Mercy has welcomed more than 2,600 families.

We’re happy to sponsor tonight’s THE 4TH ANNUAL

Ronald McDonald House Red Shoe Gala.

ENTERTAINMENT The 4th Annual Red Shoe Gala brings TWICE the entertainment for an evening of amazing music and dancing. Don’t miss our headliner, Tracie Thoms, singer, actress and Broadway star. And back by popular demand, Jake Simpson, Star Search Grand Champion!

TH Thoms THE 4Tracie ANNUAL The Baltimore Sun referred to Tracie Thoms as a “tripletriple threat”: “The Baltimore native sings, dances and acts, and her career encompasses film, television and theatre.” Tracie has appeared on Broadway in “Rent”, “Stick Fly” and the Broadway revival of “Falsettos”; in dozens of television shows including a series regular on CBS’ Cold Case and recurring roles on 9-1-1, Love, Gone, Criminal Minds, and Wonder Woman; and movies such as The Devil Wears Prada, Death Proof and Safe House. Her amazing voice will inspire and entertain as she performs solo, and with Red Shoe Gala favorite Jake Simpson.

An Event Benefitting Ronald McDonald House Charities® of the Ozarks.

Jake Simpson

Long before his prize-winning Pop performances on Star Search and his now-infamous R&B duets on The Oprah Winfrey Show; or sharing the stage with artists like Earth, Wind & Fire, Adam Lambert and Stevie Wonder; singer JAKE SIMPSON was best known across the Midwest as an up-and-coming Crooner, paying for college and cutting his teeth singing his favorite classic songs in cozy Jazz Clubs across the Heartland.

Growing up in Crocker, Missouri, making music has been one of the most important driving forces in Jake’s life. He now calls Los Angeles home and we are thrilled to welcome him back to the Ozarks and the Red Shoe Gala for the fourth year!

SPONSORS & CONTRIBUTORS Our heartfelt gratitude to our sponsors and contributors (as of October 10, 2018) who have ensured the success of our Fourth Annual Red Shoe Gala and the continued mission of Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Ozarks.
