Description

About the Organization


At Ronald McDonald House Charities British Columbia and Yukon (RMH BC), we envision a province where families stay close to their sick children.

Today, 2 out of 3 Canadians live in a city or town without a children's hospital. Our Mission is to give sick children the healing power of being together with family.

As a champion of family-centered care, we enable access to children's hospitals by providing families with sick children accommodation, meals, and wellness programs that support their emotional and physical well-being.


In 1983, the first RMH BC House opened its doors in Vancouver with a 13-Bedroom House, and over the years, with an increase in demand for this essential service, construction of a new building was underway.

In 2014, a 73-bedroom House was unveiled on the grounds of BC Children's Hospital along with a new 2,000 sq.

ft. RMH Family Room in Surrey Memorial Hospital.

As the second-largest House in Canada and one of the largest in the world, RMH BC will continue to grow and meet the needs of families across BC and Yukon.


Our team is the backbone of our organization—serving our families, supporting volunteers and donors, and spreading awareness every single day.
