Ronald McDonald House
The Ronald McDonald Family Room is an oasis providing the comforts of home for the immediate families of children undergoing medical treatment in Michiana-area medical facilities. Overnight guests are referred by a social worker or nursing leadership representative, and stays are granted on a daily basis, with the following three criteria:
-
Critical needs of the child
-
The distance between home and the hospital
-
The transportation needs of the family
Volunteers will assist with the "Happy Wheels" cart that provides a bit of comfort as it travels the hospital hallways, bringing parents a hot beverage and snack while keeping the little ones entertained with books, fun activities and toys.
Pop tabs are also collected at club meetings to support RMH.
