Ronald McDonald House: British Columbia and Yukon
As an essential service over the last 35 years, RMH BC has been a home away from home for over 25,000 people when they must relocate to Vancouver because of their child’s critical illness or injury. When the unthinkable happens and a family is uprooted for their child’s critical medical treatment, there are many barriers they must overcome to stay together. Hotel stays are expensive, siblings need to be cared for and staying in the hospital long term isn’t sustainable. That’s where RMH BC can help, providing accommodation, comfort, compassion and a sense of community to these families in need.
The average length of stay for families is 25 nights with the longest consecutive stay in 2021 being 430 nights. More than 30% of our families stay with us twice or more in one year. In addition to accommodation, the House offers programs designed with intention to support the whole family during their stay.
Please note: We are using Zeffy as our fundraising platform and what is awesome is that Zeffy is 100% free to use for charities. There are no fees charged to Kindred Foundation to use Zeffy. Zeffy asks for a donation; however, this can be changed to your liking during the donation process.
