  • Program 1 [2020]

    The Reno Ronald McDonald House:The Ronald McDonald House offers a home-away-from-home to families with ill or injured children so they can be close to their hospitalized child. Here, families find support, care, understanding and compassion from staff, volunteers and other families staying in the house.Our house is built on the simple idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on healing their child; not where they can afford to stay, where they will get their next meal or how they will get through the day. We have 13 bedrooms, each with a private bath. The house has a double kitchen, a dining room, living room, playroom, laundry room and an outside play area to accommodate our families.Due to Covid-19, the Ronald McDonald House closed in April 2020 and alternate lodging was provided. The Ronald McDonald House paid for families to stay in a hotel while caring for hospitalized children. In 2020 The Ronald McDonald house provided lodging to 100 families with a length of stay totaling of 1,774 nights. 56 families spent 1,181 nights in the house prior to it closing and 44 families were provided 593 nights in a hotel.
