Ronald McDonald House Charities Canada (RMHCC) is a non-profit organization that provides temporary accommodation for families with seriously ill children who have to travel to access necessary medical care. RMHCC's 33 programs across Canada consist of 16 Ronald McDonald Houses, which provide families with a home near the hospital while their child is receiving treatment, and 17 Ronald McDonald Family Rooms, which provide families with a room within the hospital.
