Serving Families Since 1981
Caring for families with children who are ill or injured.
Caring for families with children who are ill or injured.
We believe that “home” is more than four walls and a roof over your head. Since 1981, when our first Ronald McDonald House opened in Little Rock, over 70,000 families have found a haven in one of our Ronald McDonald House programs when their ill or injured children are in the hospital.
Our three Ronald McDonald Houses and three Ronald McDonald House Family Rooms – located in Arkansas and North Louisiana – provide compassionate support to families when their children are being treated at nearby hospitals. All services are provided free of charge.
Here, families find all the comforts of home and a good night’s rest, knowing their child is close by. Whether you need a quiet space to process what is happening at the hospital, a meal or snack, a hot cup of coffee, or simply a friendly ear, our staff and volunteers are here to give you and your family a place to call home.
NEW in 2026: We look forward to opening the Ronald McDonald House Family Room: St. Francis Medical Center in Monroe, LA in spring and the Ronald McDonald House: Baptist Health in late fall.
We provide essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing when children need healthcare.
