SPRING SALE 2023 CHARITY PARTNER
RMHC OF WNY
On December 8, 1983, Ronald McDonald House Charities of WNY opened the Buffalo Ronald McDonald House. The House was built on the simple idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on their child's health – not where they can afford to stay, where they will get their next meal, or where they will lay their head at night to rest. This year our House is celebrating 40 years of supporting more than 21,000 families with seriously ill/injured children.
In 2017 we expanded our mission beyond the House on West Ferry to our local hospital. The Ronald McDonald Family Room(RMFR), located in John R. Oishei Children’s Hospital, is a welcoming, home-like space steps away from their children in the hospital. The RMFR provides patients and family members a place to rest, refresh, enjoy a snack, and prepare for the emotional and mental demands of having a child in the hospital. Our Happy Wheels Cart is also located at John R. Oishei Children’s Hospital and travels room to room offering patients and families complimentary beverages and snacks while enabling them to remain at their child’s bedside. An additional Happy Wheels Cart will be coming to Sisters of Charity Hospital in 2023.
RMHC of WNY is 100% funded through the generosity of our community. For more information about RMHC of WNY, please contact Krystina Burow, Director of Development, at kburow@rmhcwny.org.
