Mission Statement

The Ronald McDonald House provides care, comfort, and a free place to stay when families need it most.

We work closely with our referral partners to ensure families have a place to stay. Our local hospital partners include: Helen DeVos Childrens Hospital, Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services, Forest View Hospital, Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital, and other Grand Rapids health care institutions and medical professionals.

In addition to living accommodations, families receive supportive services and amenities designed to reduce and manage their financial, emotional, psychological, and social stressors, as well as sustain them throughout their childs treatment.And it is 100% free.Families are never given a bill.

These support services include:
