We believe when families are together, they cope better. We believe no family should have to deal with their child’s medical crisis alone.
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.
