Closing the Distance Between Families and Care

2 out of 3 Canadian families live in a city without a children’s hospital. For families across BC and Yukon, that means impossible distances and mounting costs at the hardest moment of their lives. As an essential part of BC’s healthcare system, we remove those barriers.

Every Family Has a Story

Some families stay for a night. Some stay for a year. Some find themselves returning again and again, because their child’s journey requires it. Behind every number is a family who needed us, and a community that showed up for them.

Families from every corner of the region rely on Ronald McDonald House BC & Yukon to stay close to their child’s healthcare and remain involved throughout treatment. From Vancouver Island to the Yukon, our programs support families from over 145 communities.

As demand grows, we are expanding to ensure more families can stay in their child’s fight without added distance or financial strain.

Stories of Staying Together

Every family’s journey is different, but each one shows what becomes possible when families stay together. These stories reflect how connection, care, and a sense of normalcy help families face each day with strength and resilience.
