RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE OF CONNECTICUT INC

RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE OF CONNECTICUT INC THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE OF CONNECTICUT IS A "HOME AWAY FROM HOME" HOUSING CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES WHO ARE BEING TREATED AT NEARBY HOSPITALS AND HEALTHCARE FACILITIES. THE HOUSE IS THE CRITICAL LINK THAT BRINGS TOGETHER SPECIALIZED MEDICAL TREATMENT AND THE CHILDREN WHO DESPERATELY NEED IT. BY PROVIDING HOUSING FOR THEIR FAMILIES, RMH MAKES IT POSSIBLE FOR CHILDREN FROM AROUND THE STATE, THE COUNTRY AND THE GLOBE TO ACCESS SPECIALIZED AND LIFE-SAVING TREATMENT NOT AVAILABLE IN THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITIES. WITHOUT OUR "HOME AWAY FROM HOME" THE TREATMENTS WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE. CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES LIVE AT RMH FOR WEEKS, MONTHS, OR EVEN LONGER, IF NECESSARY. FAMILIES WHO ARE ABLE CONTRIBUTE $15.00 PER NIGHT TO RMH. TO COVER THE ACTUAL COST OF CARING FOR A FAMILY OF OVER $125 PER NIGHT, RMH RELIES ON THE GENEROSITY OF INDIVIDUAL, CORPORATE AND FOUNDATION DONORS TO REMAIN OPEN 24 HOURS A DAY, 365 DAYS A YEAR.
