Our Relationship with McDonalds

McDonald’s is the founding and forever partner of Ronald McDonald House. Since the first Ronald McDonald House opened in 1974, McDonald’s Owner/Operators, employees, suppliers and customers have supported the mission through donations, volunteerism and community involvement.

Here in Central Illinois, McDonald’s Owner/Operators and customers help support Ronald McDonald House Central Illinois and the families we serve.

How McDonald’s Supports Families

Local McDonald’s Owner/Operators support Ronald McDonald House Central Illinois in a variety of ways, including:

  • Supporting local fundraising campaigns and events
  • Serving on our Board of Directors
  • Volunteering and supporting programs for families
  • Encouraging customers to support Ronald McDonald House through restaurant fundraising opportunities

Round-Up for Ronald McDonald House

McDonald’s customers can help support families in our community each time they visit a participating restaurant by choosing to Round-Up for Ronald McDonald House.

These donations help Ronald McDonald House Central Illinois provide essential services and resources for families while their child receives medical care.


It Takes a Community

McDonald’s has been an important part of the Ronald McDonald House mission from the beginning, but our work is made possible by the support of many individuals, businesses, foundations, volunteers and community organizations.

Together, this support helps families stay close, supported and connected to the care their child needs.
