Our Services

Ronald McDonald House Central Ohio offers three core programs.

Fund a Program

Provide comfort to families by becoming a hero.

This is your House, Columbus.

You provide the meals for our guest families, you volunteer, and you donate generously. Local McDonald’s restaurants, their customers, and Nationwide Children’s Hospital generously provide 6 percent of our budget, but generous individuals, corporations and foundations (like you!) fund the rest. We do not receive any city, state or federal grant funds, and we are not a United Way agency.

For information on naming opportunities that support family stays, please contact Kate Siefert, Senior Development Director, at (614) 227-3777 or kate.siefert@rmhcentralohio.org.

How to Request a Room

Stays at Ronald McDonald House Central Ohio are by referrals from hospital staff only. After a referral is made, House staff will contact you.
Rooms are provided on a first-come, first-serve basis to families with hospitalized children under the age of 18. Priority is given to families of patients in critical care units. To request a room, please talk to your child’s hospital staff for a referral.
