About

Our Mission

At Ronald McDonald House Central Ohio we provide essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing when children need healthcare.

Offering Stability

The reality of having a child sick in the hospital can be incredibly overwhelming to parents and siblings. 
Ronald McDonald House is able to provide families with stability in the midst of unthinkable circumstances.
When a child is hospitalized, the comfort of having family nearby is beyond measure. This heartfelt purpose drives and defines Ronald McDonald House Central Ohio.

McDonald's

Our Forever and Founding Partner

From the first Ronald McDonald House in 1974 to today’s global network of programs, the McDonald’s system – owner/operators, crew members, suppliers, and customers – has helped shape what this mission has become. Their support has helped grow Ronald McDonald House from a single home into a worldwide network serving millions of families each year.

Through initiatives like Round-Up, local restaurant support, and community engagement, McDonald’s partners help ensure families can find a place to stay, a warm meal, and a community that cares – at no cost to the families.
