Mission Statement
To keep families together and promote the health and well-being of children
About This Cause
Since we opened our doors in 1984, the Ronald McDonald House in Milwaukee has been keeping families close by providing more than 45,000 family stays. These families come from 569 Wisconsin communities, 50 states and many countries around the world whose children are receiving medical care at Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin or other area hospitals. In 2023 we provided more than 2,300 family stays. We offer a place to call home at little or no cost, so families can stay together. Many families try to contribute what they can—even if it’s the suggested $20 a night donation. In reality, our cost is just over $130 per night. No one is ever turned away for their inability to pay. The House is more than just a place to stay. We offer families therapeutic programming, a comprehensive meal program, comfortable community spaces and so much more. A team of over 550 volunteers and a small dedicated staff are always ready to do whatever it takes to make a family’s stay a little easier. Living in a community, side by side, families form friendships and support one another through difficult times. With our expansion we hope to never turn away another family who needs to stay close to their child. We are committed to providing a sense of community and emotional support that allows our families to focus solely on their children’s health. Our House offers a variety of areas for children and parents to relax and have fun including: * Expressive Therapies * Pet Therapy * Family Garden Education * Magic Room * Movie Night * Kids Can Cook * Tutoring * Playroom
