"Your child is seriously ill."
For parents, these are among the most terrifying words they could ever hear. Imagine the fear, anxiety and stress families face as they cope with their child's illness. Imagine them facing that struggle alone, in an unfamiliar place far away from home.
Ronald McDonald House® BC, ‘The House that Love Built’, is a safe, secure home-away-from-home where out-of-town families with seriously ill children can stay while their children receive medical treatment in Vancouver at BC Children’s Hospital. The House provides a warm, welcoming environment where parents can relax, prepare hot meals and share their concerns with other parents in similar situations.
We are conveniently located in Shaughnessy, only a 5 minute drive from BC Children’s Hospital. Recovering children and their parents are never far away from each other and this brings comfort to all.
Help us help these children and their families stay at Ronald McDonald House... your support will make a world of difference! Donate now.
Ronald McDonald House BC is dedicated to helping children with serious and/or life-threatening illnesses or disabilities and their families lead happier and healthier lives.
