Ronald McDonald House Charities of Kansas City

Ronald McDonald House Charities of Kansas City is built on the simple idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on the health of their child. They shouldn’t have to worry about where they’ll get their next meal or where they will sleep that night. Our volunteers remove the stress of everyday life by keeping our Houses beautiful, our kitchens full and our families well cared for. Volunteering with us is an enriching experience not only for our volunteers, but for the thousands of families who walk through our doors.

The mission of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Kansas City (RMHC-KC) is to reduce the burden of childhood illness on children and their families. We accomplish this by:

• Providing comfortable lodging convenient to local health care facilities
• Creating a caring and uplifting environment
• Undertaking resource and fund development activities that support our facilities, programs, and services

Ronald McDonald House Charities of Kansas City alleviates the worry and expense of finding a close, comfortable and affordable place for a family to stay while their child receives the medical care they need. That can make a world of difference to a child bravely battling an illness or recovering from a serious injury.

At Ronald McDonald House Charities of Kansas City, we keep families with sick children close to each other and the care and resources they need. At our three Houses adjacent to Children’s Mercy Hospital and Ronald McDonald Family Room, we create places of respite where families can rally around and support one another. While we are near Children’s Mercy downtown, we serve all pediatric hospitals in Kansas City.
