HOBOKEN, N.J., Oct. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Apple Montessori Schools, with 15 preschools in New Jersey, raised $25,500 for Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) of the New York Tri-State Area through its annual school-wide donation program. Since 2011, the Apple Montessori Schools community has worked together to raise a total of $183,095 for RMHC. Donation totals include an annual donation from The Bailey Family, the founding family of Apple Montessori Schools.

Families at each of Apple Montessori's schools in Cliffside Park, Edgewater, Edison, Hoboken, Kinnelon, Mahwah, Metuchen, Morris Plains, Oakland, Randolph, Towaco, and Wayne contributed to this important cause.

Apple is proud to aid the mission of RMHC in providing homes away from home for the families of seriously ill, hospitalized children. Donations are used to support RMHC's grants to five Ronald McDonald Houses in the New York metropolitan area.

Apple Montessori's Spring Olympic Day fundraiser is not only a fun day of relay races and obstacle courses, it also teaches students valuable lessons about compassion and generosity.

"The work that RMHC does to help families through such difficult times is so important," said Joanne Mooney, President of Apple Montessori Schools. "Children are miracles, and we're proud to do our part to support RMHC's incredible mission to ensure they feel cared for, supported and safe."
