Malkin’s 50 points brought his contribution to $35,500, which was matched by several McDonald’s restaurants for the total of $71,000.
Malkin and the McDonald’s restaurants have donated nearly $300,000 to the Ronald McDonald House over the past three seasons.
“We are incredibly fortunate to be part of something so special,” said Eleanor Reigel, CEO of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Pittsburgh and Morgantown. “Raising both awareness and support for the Charity, this initiative is giving families the comfort they need while far from home with a sick child.”
