Giving families with a sick child what they need most – each other.
For four decades, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Kentuckiana has been a beacon of hope, providing a home away from home for families in need. As we celebrate this milestone, we invite you to join us in reflecting on our journey, honoring the countless moments of compassion, and looking forward to a future filled with more shared stories and support. Together, we make a difference.
A Journey of Compassion and Community
From our humble beginnings to becoming a cornerstone of support for families, RMHCK has grown thanks to the unwavering support of our community. In 1984, we opened our doors with a heartfelt commitment to comfort, care for, and support families during their times of need. Through the decades, our journey has been marked by countless stories of hope, resilience, and community. From welcoming our first family to embracing thousands today, keeping families together remains at the heart of what we do. Join us in celebrating this incredible milestone!
