Get Involved

Help us comfort more families in need.

Each year, Ronald McDonald House Richmond serves hundreds of children and families – and more need our help. There are many ways for you to join us in our mission dedicated to providing stability and vital resources to children and families in need.

Individual Volunteers

Ronald McDonald House Richmond offers several types of regular volunteer opportunities for individuals interested in helping our organization offer comfort to families seeking pediatric healthcare in Richmond, including:

  • House Warmers
  • Front Desk Volunteers
  • Hospitality Cart Volunteers

Make a Meal

Through our meal program, volunteers make homemade, nutritious meals that are provided free of charge to families with a child in the hospital. Lunches with Love are distributed to our program spaces within local hospitals, while dinners are available for families staying at our Ronald McDonald House on Monument Avenue to enjoy after a long day at the hospital.

This critical volunteer opportunity is available to individual and group volunteers.

Wish List

Help us stock our shelves with snacks and comfort items for our families, and household items that keep our program spaces clean and comfortable.
