The Red Heart Ball Gala welcomes the Central Valley's most generous community leaders to a wonderful night benefitting the Ronald McDonald House Charities. With the money raised from the event, both from our generous sponsors and from donations, we are able to provide a home away from home for the families of hospitalized children. At the Ronald McDonald House, families who have a critically ill or injured child can stay here free of charge. At the house, they have a private bedroom, private bathroom, living spacs and daily meals just steps away from the hospital. With your support, the Ronald McDonald House takes care of everything, so families can focs on what matters most: being ith their child.
