About Us
We believe when families are together, they cope better. We believe no family should have to deal with their child’s medical crisis alone.
Our Mission
Our Vision
A world where every family has what they need to ensure the best health outcomes for their children.
We’re changing the lives of families globally
Supporting families since 1974
After recognizing the need to support the whole family when a child is seriously ill or injured, our first Ronald McDonald House opened in Philadelphia, PA, USA, in 1974. That was the beginning of our role as a unique charity dedicated to caring for families with children who are ill or injured. Our programs and services address the essential needs of families around the world - all along their child’s healthcare journey - so they can focus on the health and well-being of their child.
Each year, RMHC provides at least 2.7 million overnight stays, helping families save $736 million in lodging and meal expenses in 2023 alone.
Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
We believe it is the diverse backgrounds, cultures and experiences that each member of our global organization brings to the table everyday that allow us to provide the care and support that children and their families need.
We know we are stronger together because of our diversity.
We will never waver in our commitment to this core value.
When you get involved, families everywhere benefit
We believe that no family should have to deal with their child’s medical crisis alone. Your participation with RMHC can make a big difference whether it’s holding a fundraiser for our global organization or volunteering your time with one of our local Chapters. Together, we can impact the lives of many. Join us.
