Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Philadelphia Region

Philadelphia, PA 19104
Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Philadelphia Region supports families of seriously ill children by creating a community of comfort and hope. The services that we provide—safe housing, reliable and healthy meals, and psychosocial support—reflect core values that have been at the heart of our organization since we began in 1974. As the world has faced an unprecedented crisis in recent months, the value of these three pillars is more apparent than ever.
- Housing - We provide clean, comfortable, and safe lodging which allows access to vital healthcare services for children.
- Meals - Our Food Services Program provides three delicious meals to families every day, making sure all family members are caring for their own health and well-being.
- Psychosocial Support - Our on-site social workers provide regular conversation, therapeutic play activities, and other valuable resources to meet each individual family’s needs.
Our event celebrates the everyday heroes who demonstrate acts of volunteerism, philanthropy, and goodwill that fall into the three pillars at the heart of our organizational mission outlined above. Sponsors have the opportunity to recognize a Champion of Hope in their life, or can shine a light on one of the heroes close to the daily work of RMHC of the Philadelphia Region.
