Description

Since opening our doors in December 2011, we’ve provided a “home away from home” for over 5,400 families with severely ill children receiving life-saving treatment at Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital Long Beach and other local treatment centers, and we need your help.

We are excited in our planning of our very special 8th annual signature gala event on Thursday, October 27, 2022 at the Pacific Room of the Long Beach Arena.  The “A Few Good Men” Gala is an evening that will honor esteemed gentlemen of the community as they “strut their stuff” down a runway for a men’s fashion show benefiting our Long Beach Ronald McDonald House.  Each Honoree is well known throughout the region for generous philanthropic contributions to the communities they serve and beyond.

We ask that you consider partnering with us and supporting our mission by making a donation.  We expect over 1,200 guests, and know that your help with this item will make a huge difference, raising money to support the families that we serve.

The Long Beach Ronald McDonald House provides a valuable community service to families facing the most difficult of life’s challenges; the illness of a child.  Ronald McDonald House not only provides a place for families to stay, it also gives them a support network with other families facing similar circumstances.  Our 23 guestroom House offers a living room, open-air courtyard, large dining room and kitchen.  It also allows families the conveniences of a laundry facility, fully equipped computer room, outdoor garden and child’s play area.  Many families travel long distances to get the best care possible for their children, and often times this divides a family.  Our hope is, staying with us will provide rest, comfort and support and allow families to stay together in a warm, caring environment within close proximity to specialized medical care.

Our location is one program of a much larger global charity.  We have over 377 houses around the world providing these vital services for families.  We are a 501c (3) tax exempt organization for both federal and state tax purposes. 

Many thanks in advance for your support!
