Ronald McDonald House Charities® (RMHC®) Atlantic helps families with ill or injured children stay together and near the medical care they need.

Our programs include Ronald McDonald House®, a “home away from home” for out-of-town families with sick children, and two Ronald McDonald Family Room® Programs, offering an oasis of calm and support inside the hospital.

Ronald McDonald House Charities Atlantic is a non-profit organization. We depend upon charitable donations and volunteer support from many individuals, corporations and foundations to fulfill our mission. We receive no operational funding from the government.

I interviewed my dad on video in his final weeks. When I asked about his work and finding meaning through helping others, he responded, “I don’t think you can be focused on, ‘Oh gee, I want to make a difference.’ It has to be spontaneous. If it’s not…there’s some kind of egotistical thing going on. That’s a red flag. You hope you impact people on the deepest level you are capable of at the time. Sometimes you hit it, sometimes you don’t. You’re trying.
