Aurora Ronald McDonald House

What an incredible charity for families who are going through very difficult times! The facilities are excellent, the staff are so helpful, and the services are very much appreciated.

I volunteer here. On this trip I worked in the kitchen with three of my friends helping to prepare and serve dinner. It is a beautiful location, the kitchen is fully stocked. They have really amazing chefs making up these menus. The people staying here have children in the hospital. They were all just raving about how delicious the food was! I think it's pretty cool because you would think that staying in a place for free you would end up with some gross cafeteria food. Instead they have delicious chef made menus and lots of fresh foods with good quality nutrition! I also volunteer playing the piano in the lobby here periodically. I spend more time at their other location which is closer to my house. It's a beautiful piano and I think it's fun that they have music volunteers coming through regularly. It just keeps the place lively.

I cannot think the staff enough for their time and consideration and their patience with me and my children. I am so grateful for them. They are so kind and welcoming. I spent a little over two weeks. This my home why I care for my son. My toddler loved the playroom and my son was crazy about all the video games they had. The only negative thing I have to say is, I am disappointed in other families who did not clean up after themselves in the common areas I was very shocked, seeing families leave so much dirty dishes, and everything in the kitchen and not helping to clean when everything that we needed was always provided so I was happy to clean anything I found. I am very grateful for the Ronald McDonald house.

Excellent facility and outstanding Staff. Several months ago I dropped off a donation from my Yarn Shoppe of hand crafted knit and crocheted baby blankets and throws, and beanies for the families there who have loved ones at the hospital. The gentleman at the reception desk was very nice and friendly and greatly appreciated our donations. CAB☺️🧶

So kind and courteous. Meals donated and activities while staying with someone in the hospital. Second best to being home.
