Details:

The Ronald McDonald House in New Brunswick (http://www.rmh-cnj.org/house-newbrunswick.html) provides room and board to parents of severely ill children in the local hospitals. "Caring Cooks" provide homemade meals to make families' stays a bit more pleasant.

Cooks can either prepare dinner for approximately 10 RMH residents at home, or work in the RMH's awesome kitchen. You can work by yourself, or coordinate with other families to make different courses separately. Food should be on the counter at RMH, heated up & ready to eat, by 5:30 PM. (There's no need to set the table or do anything fancy -- just leave the food on the counter, & residents will come down & serve themselves when they have a chance.) I'll be in touch with you before your cooking date to confirm how many residents will actually be present on your date, but the number is generally around ten.

RMH asks cooks NOT to use nuts, & they prefer not to receive mac-and-cheese or baked pasta dishes, as they receive so many of those.
