Our Story
The Huntington Ronald McDonald House has been considered a refuge of hope. We provide a special place where the families facing tremendous stress and anxiety can find solace, support and understanding. A place where experienced, dedicated volunteers and staff members provide care and comfort when families are most vulnerable due to serious illness of their child.
Since 1987 when the dream of our House became a reality 10,317 families have stayed with us for a total of 74,565 nights. Most of our residents come from southern West Virginia, eastern Kentucky and southeastern Ohio, but families from 31 other states and 5 foreign countries have stayed with us too.
In 2005 we proudly re-opened our newly renovated and expanded House. We went from 10 bedrooms to 20 bedrooms and tripled our square footage. For the past 34 years, the Ronald McDonald House has partnered with outstanding hospitals to provide the best possible environment for families and children when they need it most. Many of these families had never dreamed that they would ever be in need of a Ronald McDonald House. But once they are here, their lives are transformed!
The Ronald McDonald House exists because of generosity. In fact, our dream of expansion could not have became a reality without the many caring, generous people who believed in and supported the "House that Love Built". That support means a great deal to our guest families. Thank you for helping us continue to serve them.
As we open the door to our future we invite you to step in...........Welcome to the Huntington Ronald McDonald House
