A special full-circle moment to end the week: In 2000, Dylan’s family stayed with Ronald McDonald House Charities of Tulsa, Inc. while he was being treated at a nearby hospital. 24 years later, Dylan returned to stay at the House, this time as a dad. His son Creed finished his treatment and their family is returning home! We are sending them the best wishes on the next part of their journey. 🎉💙

One of the most special things families find when they turn to RMHC for support is friendship!

Depending on a family's needs, they can be with us for just a couple of days or, in some cases, years. Being surrounded by other families and children experiencing similar situations forms bonds that can last a lifetime. Together, they can play, rest, and support each other when it matters most. 💙

A big thank you to the Sewell Lexus interns for cooking and serving a Meal from the Heart for our RMHFW families! We are always grateful for our dedicated volunteers who take the time to provide comfort for our families.

If you would like to participate in our Meals from the Heart program, please contact Tonja Sparks at [email protected] for more information. 🍽️❤️

Volunteering with RMHC can take many different forms! At Ronald McDonald Børnefond, volunteers support families by cooking, repairing bikes, knitting socks, and even making towel animals!

“We were so happy to be at the Ronald McDonald House. We were with other families we could exchange stories with and seek recognition from each other.”

When Sef was born prematurely at 28 weeks, his parents Irene and Marco, found the support and strength they needed at Ronald McDonald Kinderfonds. From a loving community of other families with similar experiences to warm meals each day, RMHC allowed them to be with Sef as much as possible during his treatment. 💙

Our families got to step into the shoes of a Starbucks barista for the day with a ‘Make Your Own Frappe’ station graciously organized by the team Starbucks Denton! This was an unforgettable day for our RMHFW families. ✨☕

We love visits from our former families! The Plaunty family, one of five families who stayed with us during the pandemic, came by to drop off a donation and reminisce about the great memories they made during their stay at the House. ❤️

What a week! Over the last few days, RMHC colleagues from 58 countries joined us here in Chicago for the 2024 RMHC International Conference.

It was an incredible time filled with connection, discussion, and inspiration! From our 100 learning sessions to a private screening of Audrey's Children, a biopic of our co-founder, the late Dr. Audrey Evans, we had an unforgettable time together.

Thank you to the 1,700+ members of the RMHC Family that traveled far and wide to be with us. YOU are the heart of the work we do and the driving force of our mission to provide essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing when children need healthcare.

As we continue to celebrate our milestone anniversary this year, let us remember: we are 50 years young, and our work has just begun!

From now until September 30th, RMHFW has partnered with Pristine Express Car Wash for a special fundraiser! Purchase a car wash through our exclusive link, and RMHFW will receive 50% of the proceeds.

"The care, consideration, kindness, and aroha (love) that RMHC showed my whānau (family) will be something I treasure forever."

When three-year-old Nia needed medical care, the Quinn family traveled a considerable distance from their home for her to receive high-level care. Thankfully, Ronald McDonald House Charities New Zealand provided the strength and care they needed to best support Nia on her healthcare journey. 💙

We are committed to addressing family needs along a child’s healthcare journey, and sometimes that means creating programs and services for the unique needs of families in their communities.

In the Netherlands, Ronald McDonald Kinderfonds offers three different “Holiday Houses” to families after a child’s long-term hospital stay. At these Houses, families stay for up to a week in an apartment with their own kitchen, bedrooms, and living areas - all specially equipped for their children’s needs. 🏡💙
