Ronald McDonald House Charities (DRMcD) is an independent non-profit organization that is part of the global network of charitable organizations called Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC). Our common mission is to help families of children with serious long-term illnesses. We believe that the presence of parents in the hospital helps children to recover quickly. For this reason, we are building houses all over the world that will allow these families a free temporary stay in close proximity to hospitals. Currently, our organization operates in more than 45 countries and regions around the world and operates 380+ houses, with more opening every year.
