Volunteers from two La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries stores here delivered more than 260 pieces of donated furniture to the remodeled Ronald McDonald House Northern Alberta. Late last year, La-Z-Boy became the official furniture provider to the charity.
More than 30 store associates and employees, led by owner Mohammed Moussa, helped deliver sofas, chairs, recliners, beds, armoires, desks, nightstands and more, helping transform the newly expanded House into a comfortable home for those in need.
"The Ronald McDonald House Northern Alberta has shown an incredible commitment to serving and providing families of ill and injured children with comfort in every sense of the word," said Moussa. "We hope that this new furniture can contribute in a small way to the sense of comfort and tranquility that Ronald McDonald House provides to families every day."

La-Z-Boy donates furniture to all Ronald McDonald House and Ronald McDonald Family Room programs in Canada and the United States and also contributes cash.
"We are thrilled to have a House filled with comfortable furniture that will make our families feel at home the moment they arrive," said Larry Mathieson, executive director of the 42,000-square-foot house. "We felt so lucky to have everyone at La-Z-Boy take time out to help make families and their sick children feel comfortable, safe and supported during their stay at the House."
