About Us

Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central and Northern Arizona is a welcoming ''home away from home'' for families with children facing medical challenges, providing an atmosphere of comfort, hope and courage.
In 2020, we provided 9,736 nights of lodging for families traveling to Phoenix and Mesa to receive medical care and treatment for their children. We served 667 families. Each night we provide temporary housing for 72 families at one of our three Houses we operate in the Valley. Our Houses provide private rooms and bathrooms, nightly meals, laundry facilities and welcoming outdoor spaces for children and families. The cost to house a family for 1 night is $107 and there is no charge to the families who stay with us. We are community funded and are fiscally responsible with the funds raised. We have a small staff and utilize community volunteers.
