When a child needs life-saving medical care far from home, it means families are uprooted from their everyday comforts and support systems of home.

At Ronald McDonald House, families find the crucial supports they need during a difficult time: a place to call home where they can rest and recharge, with warm meals, and a community of peers that understands what they're going through.

Because when a child is in hospital, they need a well-cared for family by their side.

Help families keep going. Learn more about the difference your support can make. 🔗

In the spirit of Fall and Thanksgiving, this weekend some of our families shared what they're thankful for on colourful fall leaves. ❤️🍂

From being together as a family, to cozy treats provided by volunteers and donors, to the support of the IWK Health Centre, every leaf was a reminder of the power of community, family and care.

We're so grateful to see how strongly our belief that family stays together resonates with the families we serve. 🏡

This Thanksgiving season, give a family a meal. 🧡🍲🍂

Around our kitchen tables, families find comfort, connection, and a moment that feels like home.

After a long day at the hospital, the last thing a parent should have to worry about is what's for dinner. A home-cooked meal provides more than nourishment. It saves families time, money, and energy, so they can focus on what matters most: their child.

For just $32, you can help provide a meal and bring comfort to a family during a difficult time.

The House received the sweetest delivery this week! ❤️

For his birthday, one thoughtful young boy chose to celebrate by giving back. He and his friends spent his special day creating gift baskets for families staying at Ronald McDonald House Maritimes, along with heartfelt notes for the staff.

We're endlessly grateful for the many ways our community shows up for families, no matter their age. The kindness, generosity, and compassion shared by supporters like these remind us just how much heart exists across our Maritime communities. 🫶

Last weekend, DKI Canada Ltd. hosted their 1st Annual Levi Luther Golf Tournament in support of families staying at Ronald McDonald House. The cause is especially meaningful to one of DKI's own, Jeremy Lynds, who stayed at our House with his partner, Bailey, and their son, Levi, spending 121 nights during Levi's medical journey. 💛

Through the generosity of everyone involved, the tournament raised more than $56,000. These funds will help provide families with more than just a place to stay while their child receives care, offering comfort, nourishment, support, and the opportunity to remain together during some of life's most challenging moments.

Thank you DKI Truro for hosting, and for everyone who donated and took part on this special day. 🏠❤️

It's World Smile Day! 😊❤️

Today celebrates the power of a smile, and how the smile on the Happy Meal® box helps bring even more reasons to smile to families staying at Ronald McDonald House.

Every Happy Meal purchased at locally owned McDonald's restaurants across the Maritimes helps support Ronald McDonald House Maritimes.

With every Happy Meal sold, a portion of the proceeds helps provide comfort, care, and support for families staying close to their child while receiving medical treatment.

For families at the House, some of the biggest smiles come from life's simplest moments: finding a Happy Meal waiting in our Kitchen Pavilion, connecting with another family who understands their journey, or watching their child enjoy an activity after a long day.

This World Smile Day, and every day, you can help create more of those moments. Pick up a Happy Meal at your local McDonald's Canada and help bring comfort, care, and more reasons to smile to Maritime families. ❤️

Our House and Family Rooms proudly serve families from across the Maritimes and are located in Mi'kma'ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi'kmaq. We are honoured to support families from many Indigenous communities throughout Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and New Brunswick, including Mi'kmaq, Wolastoqiyik (Wolastoqey/Maliseet), and Peskotomuhkati (Passamaquoddy) Nations.

Family is at the heart of everything we do, and we recognize the importance of listening to Indigenous voices, learning from the truths of our shared history, and advancing meaningful reconciliation. We know this requires ongoing reflection, education, and action.

🧡 Every Child Matters.
