Ronald
McDonald House Charities of Southern California(RMHCSC)
|
|
Everyday, RMHCSC is making a difference
in the lives of children and their families, providing a "home away
from home" for families of seriously ill children receiving treatment
at nearby hospitals.
Some children must travel great distances to get medical attention.
In-hospital treatment may last one day, one year or longer. For these
children's families, accommodations can be hard to come by. Options
often are limited to costly hotels or uncomfortable hospital chairs and
benches.
The Ronald McDonald House provides a comfortable, supportive
alternative. It serves as a temporary residence near the medical
facility where family members can sleep, eat, relax and find support
from other families in similar situations. In return, families are
asked to make a donation of $5 per day, but if that isn't possible,
their stay is free.
