In Canada, 2 out of 3 of families live outside a city with a specialty children's hospital and must travel for medical treatment if their child becomes seriously ill. Ronald McDonald House Charities provides a place for families to stay together, steps away from a children’s hospital. Because when families stay together, sick children get stronger.

More families need our help.

While in an average year, RMHC across Canada serves more than 26,000 families, we estimate we are meeting just 20-30%* of the need for our programs.

In an average year, up to 45,000* Canadian families are left without the support of the RMHC House Program. We are on a mission to change that, and we need your help! Together, we can make sure that no family is turned away.
