Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland & Northwest Indiana
Housing, Support, and Community So Families with Sick Children Can Stay Together
Our Mission: We provide essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing when children need healthcare.
We lead with compassion
We are deeply respectful
We act with integrity
We are firmly committed
Providing a home for families who need a bed tonight, tomorrow, and until their children heal.
Every day, families face the emotional and economic toll of having a child in the hospital. Together with the support of our community, we provide housing to keep families together, and provide a comfortable, warm, and loving home away from home.
Where a community of love joins together
No sick child should be alone. No family should be apart. With the help of dedicated volunteers and generous donors, we create places of healing and hope.
Cook a meal with your group. Sponsor an event with your company. Donate your time, talents, or money to helping families through their toughest times.
No family should be alone. Thanks to you, they won’t be.

Long days in the hospital can be stressful and disorienting. With our hospital partners, we’ve created places to rest, have a meal, and find a moment of quiet within the hospital while still being only steps away from your sick child.
Ronald McDonald Care Mobiles
Care is needed everywhere. Our Ronald McDonald Care Mobiles are fully-equipped medical clinics on wheels that bring cost-effective health care directly to under-served children in the neighborhoods where they live.
