Annual Gala
Gala/Party for Ronald Mcdonald House Charities of Chicagoland & Northwest IndianaApr 29, 2023 from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM
Our annual gala is an inspirational evening celebrating and advancing our mission with our community of supporters. The funds raised through this event help support our critical programs, allowing families to access healthcare while staying close to their hospitalized child. Complete with live and silent auctions, live entertainment and more, the Gala is our premier fundraising event of the year. The Gala aims to raise $1.5 million to fund the operations and programs that enable families to focus on what matters most: the health of their children.
Philanthropic support makes our programs possible. Each night, through our six Ronald McDonald Houses and three in-hospital Ronald McDonald Family Rooms, we help 172 families gain access to critical healthcare for their child, while staying close to them and their medical team. Our two Ronald McDonald Care Mobiles provide access to high-quality medical care for thousands of children in underserved areas. No family is ever turned away based on their ability to contribute.
