The Long Beach Ronald McDonald House is a “home-away-from-home” for families with critically-ill children, keeping them close to one another, their doctors, and needed medical care.

It is hard to believe that our House has just celebrated 10 years since we opened our doors to our very first family! Over the past 10 years the Long Beach Ronald McDonald House has provided over 52,000 room nights and services to more than 5,400 families of critically ill children. That's greater than 20,000 people that have stayed with us in their time of need.

We feel extraordinarily blessed that we have never had to close our doors during the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, in 2020 at the height of the pandemic, we saw our longest family stay ever at 335 nights.

Ronald McDonald House Charities of Southern California is built on the simple idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on the health of their child not where they can afford to stay, where they will get their next meal where they will lay their head at night to rest.

We hope to raise $207,000 at this years "hybrid" Walk for Kids celebration. Every dollar counts and allows us to continue serving families who travel from all parts of the state, country, and even around the world to receive medical treatment for their son or daughter.

On behalf of all our amazing and incredibly brave families, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support!
