Since 1983, Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Mid-Missouri has been keeping families close while their child receives medical care in the Columbia area. The Ronald McDonald House gives: children a place to play after a long day at the hospital; parents a home for a warm meal and a good night’s sleep near the hospital, and families relief from the financial and emotional burdens of traveling for their child’s medical care. To do this, we rely on the love, sharing and caring of hundreds of generous donors and volunteers from across the region. Thank you for supporting our mission!
