“Share a Night” With a Family

Help us help even more families in need

An illness, premature birth or injury to a child is difficult under the best of circumstances, but when that illness requires hospitalization far from the familiar surroundings of home, it is a nightmare for a family.

Concern for their child’s recovery… the cost of medical care…questions about paying for a prolonged stay … concerns about losing a job or having to quit one to become a caretaker…these and other worries loom over many of the families who walk through our door.

Families that stay with us have come from all over for treatment in our local hospitals.

It costs, on average, $175 per night to operate the Ronald McDonald House program.  

To support ongoing operations, we encourage, but do not require, guests to make a donation of $25 or whatever amount they are able, in order to continue operations for future guests. No family is ever turned away due to the inability to contribute. We can do this because of your generous donations.

Today you can help a family eliminate one of their worries.  Consider sponsoring a family for a night…a week…a month…or more. Please give as generously as possible because the last thing a family with an ill child should have to worry about in today’s uncertain climate is where to sleep.

Thank you for helping us to provide a loving place to stay — as well as all the love, encouragement, and support that children and families need.
