The Ronald McDonald House is open to all families regardless of financial status or ability to pay. The House is available for overnight stay, a short nap or rest, or a shower during a day visit. The Ronald McDonald House of Southern West Virginia serves guests/patients of all area hospitals.

Guests are asked to pay a nominal donation to offset operating costs. The fee is often reduced or waived; no one is turned away because of their inability to pay.

The majority of operating funds, however, come from the generosity of others. Approximately 70% of the funds necessary to operate the Ronald McDonald House of Southern West Virginia are provided through the contributions of foundations, corporations, and individuals in our community. Through the continued support of our "Very Important Friends," we are able to serve over 400 families every year.

To date, more than 10 million families with sick children have called a Ronald McDonald House a “home-away-from-home,” saving them over $120 million in housing and meal costs.

Over $320 million dollars in grants have been dedicated towards making an immediate, positive impact on those children who need our help most.  And more importantly, countless smiles have been shared, lives have been touched, and connections have been made.
