The Mission of the Ronald McDonald House
Ronald McDonald House Charities Eastern Wisconsin is dedicated to easing the burden of families whose lives have been disrupted as a result of their child’s illness or injury. We provide a home away from home and caring outreach initiatives.
A Place of Healing and Hope
The Ronald McDonald House is a place where the children come first. It is a privilege to work with our families, to try to make life a little easier. We are inspired daily by the outpouring of love and compassion that we see at the House. Ronald McDonald House provides a sense of community – of knowing you’re not alone even when you’re so far from home. To visit the Ronald McDonald House in Milwaukee is to realize that, beyond the foundation of the building itself, there also lies the foundation of an engaged and committed community that understand and are dedicated to making the lives of our families just a little easier, and their burdens a little more bearable.
Since 1984, the Ronald McDonald House in Milwaukee has provided a home away from home for over 33, 000 families of hospitalized children. We offer a place to call home at little or no cost so families can afford the best care and stay together which helps their child heal faster.
Besides a place to stay, we offer families a community of over 500 volunteers that care deeply and are dedicated to making their lives a little easier. We provide support through family dinners, art therapy, dog therapy, music, wellness programs and more. Above all, the House offers the emotional support and common friendship of other families in very similar situations.
Families are stronger when they are together, which helps a child heal faster and cope better. While we cannot ease the pain of the children and their families’ experience, we can help lessen their burden and ensure children have access to quality medical care by providing their families a place to stay.
Children with serious illnesses need more than quality medical attention. They need emotional support and understanding from their families. Families, in turn, need a place where they can draw additional strength and find stability when a child is seriously ill. Families forced to travel a distance to obtain medical care often find that their day-to-day problems are compounded by lengthy separation from home and unimaginable financial uncertainties.
The Ronald McDonald House in Milwaukee is a place of healing where children come first.
Tender hearts and tender hands call the Milwaukee Ronald McDonald House their home.
