Our Home is Filled with Hope.
For 30 years we have been honored to offer families a place to sleep, eat and relax while their children receive medical treatment at one of the area’s nearby hospitals. Whether they live in a region that doesn’t offer the medical care necessary or they’re dealing with an emergency or accident while on vacation, many families spend several weeks or months far from home during their child’s critical treatment.
Hotel and food costs add up quickly. The Reno Ronald McDonald House acts as a home-away-from-home for families so they can stay close to their hospitalized child at little to no cost. We believe that the love and support of a child’s family is powerful during their hospitalization and work to remove the barriers that keep families from being close.
