Orange County Ronald McDonald House

The Orange County Ronald McDonald House and Ronald McDonald Family Rooms provide a comforting "home away from home" for families with seriously ill children receiving treatment in Orange County hospitals.

Description:
The Ronald McDonald House and Ronald McDonald Family Room programs provide a sanctuary near or in children’s hospitals in Orange County for children and their families. Since 1989, more than 10,000 families from all over California, the U.S. and other countries, have found a comfortable place to stay for several hours, days, weeks, months, and in some cases, over a year. The more restful environment of a Ronald McDonald House or Ronald McDonald Family Room rejuvenates family members, which helps them to better care for and assist their children during treatment.

History:
At Ronald McDonald House Charities, we owe our continued success to the tireless work of volunteers and the countless contributions from our donors. Because of you, we’ve been helping to improve the lives of children and their families for 35 years.

The first Ronald McDonald House opened in Philadelphia in 1974. Currently, RMCH is located in 52 countries and regions, with the newest being a Chapter in Latvia.
