Ronald McDonald House Toronto

Ronald McDonald House Toronto

Please join Ronald McDonald House Toronto (RMH Toronto) as we walk and run to support seriously ill children and their families during the most frightening time in their lives. Providing a “home away from home” for seriously ill children and their families to heal better together is a mission we are passionate about.

Far from home. Financially strained. Emotionally drained. Every year, hundreds of desperate families from all over the country come to Toronto in search of life-saving medical treatment for their seriously ill children. Finding themselves in a strange city and in a vulnerable state, these families long for simple comforts: a hot shower, a home-cooked meal, a supportive shoulder. More than anything, they require a safe place where their family can stay together under one roof. For close to 30 years, Ronald McDonald House Toronto (RMH Toronto) has opened its doors and arms to overwhelmed families who need to keep the spirit of hope alive while they engage in the fight of their lives. Exhausted moms and dads. Anxious brothers and sisters. Doting grandparents. All depend on RMH Toronto for the necessities and niceties that make a difficult ordeal more bearable.

We need your help!
