MEMPHIS, Tenn. (March 18, 2024) — Keeping children near the care they need with the family they love. The mission that has been the foundation of the Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Memphis since 1991 is moving its way into Jackson to serve the families of Le Bonheur Children’s and Jackson-Madison County General Hospital.  

A large way that the Jackson community can get involved with the RMHC Memphis-Jackson, TN House is through the collection of pop tabs!  Collecting pop tabs appeals to all ages and is a great way to bring together your community group, company, school, club, church, neighborhood or family.  

RMHC Memphis-Jackson, TN invites you to begin collecting your pop tabs now, then deliver them to the inaugural Pop Tab Palooza on May 10th from 10a to 5p. The weigh-in challenge will be held in Thomsen Farms, in the parking lot behind Mulligans. Your donations will be weighed as you arrive, and those with the largest donations will be featured on the RMHC Memphis-Jackson, TN website!
