Ronald McDonald House Houston

Founded in 1978, the mission of Ronald McDonald House Houston is to offer a home away from home providing care, compassion and hope to families with seriously ill children being treated in Texas Medical Center member institutions.

Located in the 4th largest metro area in the United States, and immersed in the largest medical center in the world, RMH Houston welcomes children and families at our flagship facility, Holcombe House, with 70 bedrooms; and, 35 bedrooms and 13 Family Rooms or Lounges across our Houses inside Texas Children’s Hospital, Children’s Memorial Herman Hospital and MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital. Each location offers communal living areas, unlimited access to kitchens, complimentary meals and snacks, laundry facilities, computer access, and plenty of quiet areas for hugs, prayers or high-fives.

When families cross the threshold to RMH Houston, their children are in the midst of fighting cancer, heart disease, awaiting organ transplants, managing birth defects, and numerous other life-threatening pediatric health conditions. RMH Houston welcomes our treasured guests in a caring home-like atmosphere, complete with private bedrooms, complimentary meals and snacks, access to kitchens and laundry facilities, and for those staying at Holcombe House, transportation to and from the Texas Medical Center, Mogie – our resident Labradoodle, and a few extra comforts to help them adjust in their home away from home. RMH Houston is the largest organization of its kind in Houston, and families can continue to stay at RMH Houston for follow-up appointments, which could go on for years.
