Contact: [email protected] KROC, JOAN BEVERLY (b. 27 August 1928 in St. Paul, Minnesota; d. 12 October 2003 in Rancho Santa Fe, California), peace advocate and philanthropist who was the third wife of McDonald’s Corporation founder Ray Kroc. Joan Beverly Mansfield was the elder of two daughters of Charles Smart Mansfield, a railroad telegraph operator, and Gladys Bonnebelle Mansfield, a housewife and accomplished violinist. Although her father was frequently out of work during the Depression, Joan was still able to take piano lessons, and began teaching piano at age 15, eventually having over 35 students. She was also an avid ice skater, and dreamed of becoming a nurse or veterinarian. After graduating from Humboldt High School, Joan married Navy veteran Rawland F. Smith in 1945 at age 17, and their daughter Linda was born two years later. “Rawlie” worked as a railroad engineer, and Joan played piano and organ in local restaurants. While playing at St. Paul’s Criterion Restaurant in 1957, she met Ray Kroc, who was meeting with the restaurant’s owner, Jim Zien, about starting a McDonald’s franchise. Although married at the time, Kroc later wrote in his autobiography, “I was stunned by her blond beauty.” In 1958, Zien hired Rawlie Smith to manage his first franchise in Minneapolis.

RMHC fulfills its mission by creating innovative, effective programs that address targeted needs, and by supporting these programs and other activities conducted by its local Chapters worldwide. RMHC also awards grants to other nonprofit children’s organizations that positively impact the health and well being of children around the world. health & well being 2 RMHC LETTER FROM THE CHAIR Dear friends, As the RMHC Board Chair and a McDonald’s owner/operator, I am so proud to be part of a global network of support that helps children in such a meaningful way. In addition to providing services directly to children and their families, RMHC works to build local capacity and achieve systemic change. This year alone, together we built 10 Ronald McDonald Houses and expanded 34 others. We created 14 new Ronald McDonald Family Room programs. We launched three new Care Mobile programs, expanding their reach to Central America and the Asia Pacific. We welcomed new RMHC Chapters in Korea and Latvia. We helped send a Tampa student to Harvard through our U.S. scholarship program and helped sick kids keep up with their academic work from Canada to Australia. Among the thousands of projects funded by RMHC grants, we provided various immunizations, sent kids with cancer to summer camp, helped reduce the incidence of HIV in Africa, covered prescription medications for uninsured children, gave school children new shoes, clothes and backpacks stuffed with school supplies and even built a handicapped-accessible tree house.

  • 1 Master List/Kroc Donations This List Was Compiled from News Reports
    Master List/Kroc donations This list was compiled from news reports, IRS Form 990s, personal interviews and annual reports for both The Kroc Foundation and the recipient of its assets, the Joan B. Kroc Foundation. Both are long defunct. Joan’s known final monetary gifts are listed at the end of this twenty-page document. Please note: none of Joan’s vast non-monetary gifts are listed here, nor are her personal gifts to individuals; compiling such a list would be next to impossible, given the magnitude of her giving. This is believed to be the first time a comprehensive list of the Kroc gifts has been compiled. (An abridged version of this list appears in the appendix section of the book Ray and Joan.) If you are aware of a gift that isn’t listed here, please contact me and I am happy to review it for inclusion. –lisa napoli 8/9/16 9:27 AM 1965 The Ray A.
