About this organization
Mission
Our mission is to provide the families of children being treated in area medical facilities with a safe, affordable and caring "home-away-from-home." Our residential House program offers traveling families a safe place to call home for the duration of their child’s treatment, providing them with a bedroom, bathroom, daily meals and more. Our second program is the Ronald McDonald Family Room at Caroline’s Corner located within Novant Health Hemby Children’s Hospital which provides onsite refreshments, lounge space, laundry and shower facilities to all patients and families. The goal of both programs is to provide needed support services to families so that they can focus on what matters most: the treatment and recovery of their child.
About
The presence of family is an essential part of the healing process for children battling illness or recovering from injury. When families are required to travel away from home to seek the best treatment possible for their child, they often face challenges with finding affordable accommodations. Many have to make the difficult choice between sleeping in waiting rooms or cars, paying costly hotel fees or commuting hours back and forth to the hospital daily. The physical, emotional and financial toll of these limited options add to the pressures families experience when having a sick child and make it challenging for them to receive the rest and support necessary to be strong and supportive for their child. Ronald McDonald House offers an alternative solution that allows families to stay in the city and avoid the emotional and financial stress of being away from home.The mission of the Ronald McDonald House of Charlotte is to provide a safe, affordable and caring "home-away-from-home" for the families of children receiving treatment in Charlotte-area medical facilities. The House is conveniently located just minutes from both Hemby and Levine Children's Hospitals which increases a family's ability to spend more time with their child, interact with their clinical care team and participate in critical medical decisions.
