Dover Rancher Donates Beef to the Ronald McDonald House Dressed as Santa

Mon, 20 Dec 2021 17:40:01 CST

Just before Christmas, OCA President Byron Yeoman dressed as Santa Clause and delivered a freezer full of beef to the Ronald McDonald House Charity in Tulsa, Okla. Yeoman had been planning the donation for a while, but since it took place so close to Christmas, he thought it might be fun to dress as Santa on delivery day. You guessed it, Santa drove up in a pick-up truck with a Cowboy hat and a load of home-raised, nutritious beef.

The Ronald McDonald House Charity in Tulsa allows families with sick children to stay together and near the medical care they need. Helping a sick child fight their illness takes a big enough emotional toll on a family. Adding a financial strain can make it almost too much to bear. The Houses offer all of the comforts of home.

"The Ronald McDonald House provides help to families going through some really difficult times," Yeoman said. "My wife and I are grateful for the opportunity to donate beef that will feed those families while they stay at the Ronald McDonald House."

Because cattlemen care, OCA is helping coordinate beef donations to the OKC and Tulsa Ronald McDonald Houses. Each Ronald McDonald House uses 2-3 beefs per year. Let us know if you would like to help feed families going through a tough time by emailing chanson@okcattlemen.org or calling the OCA office at 405-235-4391.

The OCA is the trusted voice of the Oklahoma Cattle Industry and works to protect and empower Oklahoma cattlemen today, to serve tomorrow. OCA is the only voice that speaks solely for the cattlemen of Oklahoma and represents beef producers in all 77 counties across the state. The OCA officers, board of directors and membership encourages you to join us in our advocacy efforts to ensure less government intervention, lower taxes and a better bottom line. For more information about OCA membership, the theft reward program or activities call 405-235-4391 or visit www.okcattlemen.org.
