Our Mission and Vision

Our Mission

The mission of Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) is to create, find and support programs that directly improve the health and well-being of children. Guiding us in our mission are our core values:

  • Focusing on the critical needs of children
  • Celebrating the diversity of the programs we offer – through the support of our staff, volunteers and donors who make them possible
  • Staying true to our heritage of responsible stewardship
  • Operating with accountability and transparency


Our Vision

Championing family-centered care in the health care journey of seriously ill children and their families.

We believe that when a child is hospitalised, a family’s love and support is as powerful as the strongest medicine prescribed. And at RMHC, we want to be a part of that solution.

We extend our reach and impact by leveraging our years of experience and our strong relationships within the community. We continually work to improve and expand our core programs, constantly developing new services to address the unique needs of the communities we serve.

It is this strong network of RMHC Chapters that helps to identify needs and carry out the RMHC mission on the ground. We rely on our strong relationships with the medical community to provide access to healthcare. We rely on strategic alliances with organizations that have the knowledge and infrastructure to extend our reach. And most of all, we rely on you – our friends, our donors, volunteers, and staff.
