Thank you for your interest in providing a meal for families at Ronald McDonald House. Having a child in the hospital can be difficult for any family, and even the smallest chores create additional stress. When you provide, prepare, and serve a meal for our families, you are providing great comfort as well as a wonderful, home-cooked meal. In addition you are relieving parents of one more worry and to do, in their already stressful day. Our meal volunteers have put together the following guidelines to help when planning your meal.

There are a total of four ovens and two large stove tops in our kitchen, and two grills on the back patio. Because of the hazards of frying food, we ask that your group not fry anything inside. If you wish to fry or use the grills please call in advance and we can set up a table out on the back patio to accommodate those needs. We have a NO FRYING policy at our house.

If you are scheduled for a weekend meal, simply press the red call button at the front door and let us know you are a meal donor. Once inside, please sign in at the front desk and let us know if it is your first time so we may give you a tour of the House while you are here.
