The Ronald McDonald House provides a “home-away-from-home” for families of seriously-ill children traveling to St. Louis for medical treatment. The facility has grown from an eight-bedroom facility in 1981, to now include three houses, eight extended-stay apartments, and three Ronald McDonald Family Rooms – one at St. John’s Mercy Children’s Hospital, St. Louis Children’s Hospital, and SSM Cardinal Glennon Children’s Medical Center. The Ronald McDonald House provides comfort, care and lodging for up to 59 families every day of the year.
