About RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES GREATER HOUSTON INC

Ronald McDonald House Charities Greater Houston (RMHC Greater Houston) operates a network of family lodgings, hospital family lounges, a pediatric Care Mobile, and meal and hospitality programs to support families while their children receive medical care. The organization’s footprint includes Holcombe House (flagship), Ronald McDonald Houses inside Texas Children’s Hospital, Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital, and MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital, plus hospital lounges and outreach services. In January 2024 the local RMHC entities consolidated under the name RMHC Greater Houston to increase capacity and coordinate programs across Greater Houston. The chapter provides wrap-around supports — lodging, meals (JoyFULL Eats), social work and education services, daily transportation, and mobile pediatric clinics — to families during pediatric medical crises, and publishes audited financials and annual reports summarizing impact and stewardship each year.
