In the early 1990\u2019s, Lansing area hospitals, doctors and parents of ill or injured children came together to find the best way to provide care for the children and also allow the parents to stay in a comfortable atmosphere, rather than sleeping in waiting room and eating out of vending machines.  The funds generated from the recycling these aluminum gems help offset the House\u2019s expenses. In return, the foundation will be able to help those in need and Ross will have made it a bit easier to do so.  At Ross, we constantly encourage our staff and students to donate items and time in order to help our community, because we understand the importance of giving to those in need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Ross Medical Education Center in Lansing, they understand that students choose Ross in order to live more prosperous lives&hellip;<br \/><a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/ross-medical-education-center-lansing-puts-pop-can-tabs-good-use-mid-michigan-ronald-mcdonald-house\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12581,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12571"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12571"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12571\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12571"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
