We were honored to welcome Tonya from the The Gianna Cirella Memorial Fund back to Ronald McDonald House in Providence this week as they renewed its support of our Adopt a Room program. ❤️

Created in memory of Gianna Cirella, the memorial fund is committed to keeping Gianna’s legacy alive while raising critical awareness about sepsis.

Through their continued support, Gianna’s memory lives on within our House, providing comfort, care, and a home away from home for families during some of their most difficult days.

We are incredibly grateful to Tonya, Tara, the Gianna Cirella Memorial Fund, and everyone who continues to honor Gianna by making a difference for others.

Thank you for allowing us to be part of Gianna’s beautiful and lasting legacy. ❤️

Every child deserves the care, support, and environment they need to grow up strong, healthy, and resilient. On National Child Health Day, we celebrate the physical and mental well-being of our youngest community members and reaffirm our commitment to helping every child thrive.

From balanced nutrition and active play to safe spaces and emotional support, everything we do at Ronald McDonald House New England is centered around the overall wellness of the family.

Following our all-staff alignment meeting this week, the Ronald McDonald House New England team headed over to Women & Infants Hospital of Rhode Island for an immersive, hands-on Choking and CPR safety certification session.

We extend our gratitude to our hospital partners at Women & Infants Hospital. They have been an invaluable, steadfast hospital partner to our organization throughout the years, continuously supporting our mission to care for families and the children. Ensuring our team is equipped with these life-saving skills is another step in reinforcing our operational readiness and commitment to the health and safety of the families and communities we serve.

Words cannot express how grateful we are to our communities in Boston and Providence for always coming through for us. When we support one another, everybody wins. Cooking a meal for these families may seem like a small gesture, but it means the world to them, taking one more burden off their shoulders. Thank you for giving the families the gift of peace of mind, the gift of nutrition, and the gift of your time.

Big love to our friends from the McDonald's Stamford Field Office! 💛 As our very first and forever partner, their continued support means the world to our families.

The McDonald's team stopped by to pitch in with deep cleaning, loaded up our pantry with essential wish list items, and even brought some extra treats to celebrate! We are so grateful for their time, support, and hands-on help.

Check out the video to hear Ana Moreno share all about their volunteer day!

As we recognize this September, we're thinking of the NICU families supported by Ronald McDonald House programs around the world ❤️

Families like baby Grayson's.

Grayson was born early at 33 weeks and needed immediate surgery and specialized care. For nearly a month while Grayson was in the NICU, his parents, Paige and Jordan, stayed just steps away at Ronald McDonald House Louisville

"Being at Ronald McDonald House allowed us to be with Grayson in the NICU as much as possible," Paige says. "It was the biggest blessing to us on our journey."

“The facility allowed us to stay focused on our son’s needs while still giving him the chance to enjoy being a child.” - The McHugh Vasquez Family

Jeremy, Jessica, and their three children stayed at Ronald McDonald House Atlanta for over 60 nights while their son participated in a feeding therapy program nearby.

When families can stay close, they can focus on what matters most: caring for and supporting one another throughout their child’s medical journey.

When you're navigating your child's medical journey, everyday activities like getting a haircut can fall to the bottom of the priority list.

At Ronald McDonald House Tampa Bay, Inc., Olivia and her team helped families get back-to-school ready with fresh haircuts. We're grateful to community members like Olivia who give back in meaningful ways, helping families feel supported and experience moments of normalcy during challenging times.

Once a Ronald McDonald House Family, always a Ronald McDonald House Family. ❤️

While Harlow and Hadley were in the NICU, the Rardon family found comfort and support at Ronald McDonald House Charities of Mid-Missouri. Now, the twins have made it a tradition to give back by volunteering at the House each year, even spending part of their birthday this year packing lunches and preparing a meal for families staying at the House.

Thank you, Harlow and Hadley!

Summer days call for a sweet treat! 🍦

When a child is receiving medical care, moments like sharing an ice cream, enjoying a summer activity, or simply spending time together can mean so much.

At Ronald McDonald House, families can hold onto these moments, all while staying close to the care their child needs.

“It is not just the House that provided us with a sense of home – it was the people,” says Shawna.

When the Roy family’s daughter, Carly, was in the NICU, her family stayed at Ronald McDonald House South Central Ontario, surrounded by a community of support while their daughter was receiving medical treatment.

For families like the Roys, Ronald McDonald House becomes more than a place to stay. It's a place of comfort and connection and a reminder that they’re not alone.

At Ronald McDonald House, it’s the small, in-between moments that often mean the most. Whether it’s time to play outside or to enjoy the fresh air together, these moments provide comfort and a sense of normalcy when families need it most ❤️
