Ronald McDonald House Charities

Corporate Support

We could not sustain programs directly improving the health and well being of children without our corporate donors. Our corporate donors are passionate about getting involved with our cause, and their generous support brings comfort and care to children across the world.

By joining the network of RMHC supporters, companies have partnered with one of the most trusted international charitable organizations and are committed to helping us extend our programs and reach.

Corporate Partnership Structure

When you partner with Ronald McDonald House Charities, you can live and embody your company’s commitment to social responsibility with the mission of the Charity. Each partnership is tailored to meet the goals of RMHC corporate donors, and all cause-related initiatives are structured to include the following components:

• Financial Support – The ability of RMHC to create meaningful programs that will have a measurable, positive effect on children’s lives depends on direct financial support from individual and corporate donors.
• In-kind Donation – Our partners can create in-kind donation programs to share their products and services to the people and organizations that need them most.
• Volunteer – Many of the 30,000 RMHC volunteers are the employees and associates of our corporate partners. Volunteer programs not only give our partners greater exposure in the local community, but they also allow employees to actively support RMHC and its mission.
