Ronald McDonald House of Oregon & SW Washington
We believe when families are together, they cope better.
Ronald McDonald House Charities of Oregon and Southwest Washington provides a "home away from home" for families with seriously ill children, and supports initiatives to improve pediatric health. During their visit, guests stay in comfortable and lovingly decorated private rooms where they can get a peaceful night's rest, knowing their child is close by. Volunteers arrive daily to offer support by greeting guests with a smile, cleaning, and cooking. By providing a setting in which families connect with other families, and children can meet other children going though a similar experience, our houses ease the isolation of what can be a stressful and frightening time.
Ronald McDonald House Charities of Oregon & SW Washington provides access to medical care and a community of support for seriously ill or injured children and their families.
In 1984, after years of planning, the first Oregon Ronald McDonald House opened its doors to families in need. Just steps away from OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital and Shriners Hospital for Children, that first House began providing comfort and relief to families needing to be close to their child’s hospital bed. More than three decades later, RMHC of Oregon & SW Washington has expanded from that first 17-room House into a statewide network of four Houses with 79 rooms and four in-hospital programs serving thousands of families every year.
