When a child needs medical care, a family’s world can change in an instant.
Since 1987, Ronald McDonald House Coastal Empire has provided families with a place to stay, meals, comfort and support so they can focus on what matters most:
Being close to their child.
We provide essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families and promote healing when children need healthcare.
Everything we do begins with family.
Our home is in Savannah, but the families we serve come from communities throughout coastal Georgia, South Carolina’s Lowcountry and beyond.
Different families. Different journeys. One thing in common:
They need to be close.
Close to their child’s bedside.
Close to their medical team.
Close to one another.
That’s why we’re here.
Our mission reaches far beyond our front door.
A home close to pediatric medical care where families can stay together during their child’s treatment.
Comfortable spaces inside local hospitals where families can rest and recharge without going far from their child’s bedside.
Comfort and essentials delivered directly to families when leaving their child’s side isn’t an option.
Since opening our doors in 1987, our community has stood beside families through some of their hardest days.
Volunteers. Donors. McDonald’s Owner/Operators and customers. Healthcare partners. Businesses. Foundations. Friends.
Together, they have made this more than a House. They’ve made it a community of care.
A child’s medical journey shouldn’t separate a family.
Because when a child is in the hospital, family stays.
And we stay with them.
