Last year, more than 700 families found comfort and care through our programs—and we couldn’t have done it without you. Our dedicated volunteers are the heart of our mission, making it possible to support families when they need it most.
Our House Runs on Volunteers
Individual Volunteer Opportunities
Individual volunteers help keep our House and Family Room running smoothly by assisting with daily operations and lending a hand wherever it’s needed most. Whether you have a few hours each week or a flexible schedule, your time and care provide comfort to families during their hardest moments.
Other Ways To Help
Pop Tab Program
Collect the aluminum tabs off your beverage cans or soup cans and donate them to us so we can recycle them in exchange for money! All proceeds from this program benefit our mission!
Goody Bags
For most holidays, as well as other times throughout the year, we deliver goodies to our families staying in the house and the patients of Prisma Health Children’s Hospital through our Ronald McDonald Family Room. We encourage goody bags, with small items such as individually wrapped candy & snacks, play-doh, bubbles, coloring books, crayons and other small items are great!
Family Room Volunteering
Ronald McDonald Family Room located inside Prisma Health Children’s Hospital is 100% staffed by volunteers. The Family Room could not operate without the endless support from our volunteers. The Ronald McDonald Family Room allows us to provide special programs and services to families and patients of Prisma Health Children’s Hospital.
When a family has a sick or injured child in the hospital, the last thing they want to do is leave their side. Oftentimes these families do not eat because they do not want to leave their child, or because they cannot afford to.
Duties may include making coffee, cleaning and keeping the Family Room neat and tidy, helping to execute special programs, and sometimes, simply offering a listening ear. If you are passionate about making others feel welcome and caring for them during their time of need, this position is for you!
Individuals volunteer at the Family Room from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. All volunteers must be able to commit to three to six months of service. Please use the link below to complete our volunteer application and view available volunteer shifts.
