Ronald McDonald House West Michigan

Happy McDonald’s Thank You Day! 🍟

Our 135 local McDonald’s stores have helped raise over $490,000 for Ronald McDonald House West Michigan so far this year, and we couldn’t be more grateful!

Every round-up means a family gets to stay together, close to the hospital where their child is getting care. Next time you visit McDonald’s, round up your order and help keep a family close. 💛

New look, same heart. ❤️

Our new look first showed up in April with the opening of our Family Room. Now, it's officially coming to Ronald McDonald House West Michigan.

While our look has changed, what matters most remains the same: supporting families in our community with the comfort, care and resources they need to stay together.

This refreshed brand identity reflects the sentiment that family is not a visitor, they stick around for the long haul. And here in West Michigan, we’re proud to be part of the support system families can count on when they need it most.
