McHappy Day will look a little different this year with in-store festivities limited, but that doesn’t mean you can’t help raise important funds for a good cause.

McDonald’s has launched a new range of Silly Socks featuring much-loved McDonaldland characters Ronald McDonald, Grimace and Hamburglar.

The designs mark 30 years of McHappy Day in Australia, with 100 per cent of profits going to Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC).

The socks are now available for purchase in McDonald’s restaurants nationwide as fundraising begins for McHappy Day on Saturday, November 13.

“Silly Socks have been a part of our McHappy Day fundraising program for many years and are well-loved among the Aussie community,” said Amanda Nakad, Marketing Director, McDonald’s Australia.

“This year’s designs feature iconic Macca’s characters Ronald McDonald, Grimace and Hamburglar, to mark 30 years of McHappy Day in Australia.

“Our Silly Socks look good, feel good and do good, with all profits going towards helping seriously ill children and their families.

“We are calling on Aussies to purchase a pair of socks and show their support for Ronald McDonald House Charities this McHappy Day.”

McHappy Day is the largest annual fundraiser for Ronald McDonald House Charities in Australia, helping seriously ill or injured children and their families stay together and close to care while undergoing treatment or surgery in hospital.

Over the past 30 years, McHappy Day has raised over $56 million for Ronald McDonald House Charities.

Australians can also support this year’s McHappy Day fundraiser by picking up a pair of $5 Silly Socks or Helping Hands for $2, $10 or $50 from McDonald’s or via McDelivery, or by buying a Big Mac on Saturday, November 13.
