How You Can Help

When parents are told that their child is seriously ill, life stops. The routine of daily tasks is interrupted by travel to distant cities for the best medical care. Dinners may come from hospital cafeterias or vending machines. The comforts of home are traded for sleeping in chairs near the bedside of a sick child unless there is a Ronald McDonald House nearby.

Your support can help make life a little easier for our guests.
