Share your story.

Every family has a story. If Ronald McDonald House has made a difference for your family, we invite you to join our Family Champions program and help others experience the same comfort and care.

What Is a Family Champion?

Family Champions are current or former guest families who choose to share their experience to support our mission. By joining, you become part of a community of advocates helping to support Ronald McDonald House and its mission.

There is no pressure and no required commitment. You choose how and when you participate.

Join a Video Story

No matter how you share, we will support you through the process.
