About Us

More than just a place to stay. A place to stay strong.

Since 1988, we have kept families together with their hospitalized children through our Ronald McDonald House®, Ronald McDonald House Family Room®, and Ronald McDonald House Hospitality Carts programs, enabling them to get better together.

Our Mission, Purpose, and Values

Ronald McDonald House Idaho provides essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing when children need healthcare.

We care for families with children who are ill or injured.

Ronald McDonald House Idaho is committed to providing exceptional programs by leading with compassion, being deeply respectful, and acting with integrity.

A Home-Away-From-Home

When families have children who require medical help far away from home, we’re here. We serve families from southwest and eastern Idaho, the Magic Valley, eastern Oregon, northern Nevada, and beyond.

For an ill or injured child, sometimes the best medicine of all is having family nearby for more hugs, kisses, and “I love yous.” Ronald McDonald House Idaho strives to provide a network of support, understanding, and care so families can focus on taking care of each other.

Community Support

Since 1988 our work has been made possible by the generosity of donors like you—from charitable foundations and businesses to community groups and individuals who want to support families in need. We are building a community of care, where volunteers prepare meals and donors provide funds to keep the lights on.

Over the years, and only because of the generosity of donors who have supported our cause, we have evolved. We continue to develop programs to meet families’ needs as they face the medical uncertainty and financial strain of caring for their children.
