About Ronald McDonald House BC and Yukon
In Canada, 2 out of 3 families live outside a city with a specialty children's hospital and must travel for urgent medical treatment if their child becomes seriously ill.
For 40 years, Ronald McDonald House BC & Yukon has provided a place for BC & Yukon families to stay together, steps away from the children’s hospital. Because when families stay together, sick children get stronger.
At our 73-bedroom House in Vancouver, families have access to hot meals, comfortable accommodation, and carefully curated Wellness Programs such as Art Therapy, Music Therapy, Massage Therapy and more, which adds joy and a slice of normalcy back into their lives.
We also serve families at the Ronald McDonald Family Room located within Surrey Memorial Hospital, a house within the hospital for families with children receiving treatment.
RMH BC & Yukon depends on community support to serve up to 2,000 families each year, who travel from over 220 communities across BC & Yukon.
