Ronald McDonald House Charities of Austin and Central Texas creates, finds and supports programs that directly improve the health and well being of children and their families.For more than 27 years Ronald McDonald House Charities of Austin has been providing a home away from home for families with critically ill or injured children receiving treatment at Austin hospitals.
We do this through our 30-room Ronald McDonald House and the Ronald McDonald Family Rooms at St. David’s Women’s Center of Texas, Dell Children’s Medical Center, and St. David’s Medical Center.
Families can come to relax, have a meal, connect with other families in similar situations, and get a much needed good night’s rest. The Ronald McDonald Family Rooms provide a restful space within the hospital where families with a child in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit or Pediatric Intensive Care Unit can watch some TV, check their email, shower, spend the night, interact with other families or enjoy a snack.
We are committed to addressing the basic daily needs of families so that valuable time and energy can be devoted to the hospitalized child.
