What is Ronald McDonald House Canada?

Ronald McDonald House Canada supports families when a child needs hospital care. Its network includes 16 Ronald McDonald House programs and 21 Ronald McDonald House Family Room programs across the country.

House programs give families a place to stay together near the hospital. Family Room programs offer a calm space inside the hospital, moments from a child's bedside.

These programs offer more than a place to stay. Families receive meals, mental health and well-being programs and a community of support, so they stay close to their child and focus on care.

What is the Good for Small campaign?

Good for Small is the Moneris campaign held during Small Business Month in October. It connects small business (Moneris customers) with the Ronald McDonald House Chapter in their community.

Moneris donates on behalf of each participating business at no cost to the business. Each business directs its donation to its local Chapter.
