Mission Statement

The mission of RMHC of Southern West Virginia is to create, find and support programs that directly improve the health and well-being of children and their families.

About This Cause

Many families travel far from home and spend several weeks or months to get treatment for their seriously ill or injured child – a long time to be away or to divide a family. And, for children facing a serious medical crisis, nothing seems scarier than not having mom and dad close by for love and support. A Ronald McDonald House is that “home-away-from-home” for families so they can stay close by their hospitalized child at little or no cost. Our Houses are built on the simple idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on the health of their child – not where they can afford to stay, where they will get their next meal or where they will lay their head at night to rest. We believe that when a child is hospitalized the love and support of family is as powerful as the strongest medicine prescribed. Open 365 days a year, the Charleston Ronald McDonald House offers 14 comfortable bedrooms with private baths, fully-equipped kitchens with dining areas, an outdoor patio area and playground, playroom, laundry facilities, and informal gathering spaces. Several nights a week, a home-cooked meal is provided by a generous community group to help relieve stress for our guests.
