Ronald McDonald House Charities Of St. Louis

Ronald McDonald House Charities® of St. Louis provides a home-away-from-home for families of seriously ill children. These children (eighteen years and younger), who live outside a 50-mile radius of St. Louis, are treated at local area hospitals, including St. Louis Children's Hospital, SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital, and Mercy Children's Hospital. In addition to St. Louis' three Ronald McDonald Houses and eight long-term apartments, there are three Ronald McDonald Family Rooms. These unique spaces, located inside the three pediatric hospitals, provide a home-like atmosphere where families can take a shower, do laundry, grab a snack, use the Internet, watch TV, or just relax. Each year, Ronald McDonald House Charities of St. Louis serves more than 14,000 local and out-of-town seriously ill children and their families.
