Each year, Ronald McDonald House Southwest Virginia serves hundreds of families traveling for critical medical care from across Southwest Virginia, Southern West Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and throughout the United States.
Families who stay with us live at least 25 miles away, often within a 200-mile radius — but crisis doesn’t always happen close to home. Whether it’s a premature birth, emergency surgery, oncology treatment, or a sudden accident while traveling, our doors are open to families when they need us most.
For families, Ronald McDonald House is more than housing near the hospital. It’s a hot meal after a long NICU visit. A shower after sleepless nights. A playroom for siblings. A welcoming space that feels like home during the unimaginable.
From one night to more than 200 nights, every stay is different — but every family receives the same mission: love, support, and the chance to stay together.
Ronald McDonald House is the world’s leading nonprofit supporting families with children receiving medical care near top hospitals. Here in Southwest Virginia, that global mission becomes deeply personal — serving local families while welcoming those from far beyond our region.
No matter how near or far, Ronald McDonald House Southwest Virginia is here to keep families close to the care they need.
