Viridian founders Marcus Dusenbury and Adriel Tam once again sponsored a table at the event which raises proceeds to fund operations at the Seattle-based RMHC. The Seattle Ronald McDonald House provides housing for families of children undergoing treatment at Children's Hospital. Viridian is a long-time supporter of the organization; Adriel Tam, a member of the Investment Committee and Board Member, has supported the charity since 2007.
Seattle RMHC's mission is to support seriously ill children and their families. At the Seattle Ronald McDonald House, we provide a "home-away-from-home" to help families through a difficult time. We also provide a van service for families staying in Anchorage while their children receive medical care.
