Open 365 days a year, the House helps facilitate the family-centered care that fosters health and well-being for the whole family.

Serving Families from Near and Far

For four decades, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio (RMHC) has been keeping families close at the Columbus Ronald McDonald House. From its beginnings as a grassroots movement established by a partnership between volunteers and local McDonald’s Owner/Operators, the charity has served tens of thousands of families in their deepest times of need.

In addition, RMHC of Central Ohio operates two Ronald McDonald Family Rooms; one at OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital, and the other at the Big Lots Behavioral Health Pavilion at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. RMHC is proud to partner with Nationwide Children’s Hospital to operate a Ronald McDonald Care Mobile.

Drive Change this October!

RMHC of Central Ohio is thrilled to announce its participation in “Cartober,” a month-long giving campaign that promotes vehicle donations to support charitable causes. This October, in collaboration with Charitable Adult Rides and Services (CARS), we are inviting our supporters to contribute to our mission by donating their unwanted vehicles.

Vehicle donations are a unique and impactful way to support our mission. Through Cartober, we aim to boost our fundraising efforts significantly, enabling us to better serve families and continue to provide comfort, support, and resources while their children receive healthcare.

Supporters can easily donate their vehicles by clicking the button below! The process is straightforward, and CARS handles all the logistics – including vehicle pick-up and paperwork – at no cost to the donor. Additionally, vehicle donations may be tax-deductible, benefitting our donors as well.
