Ronald McDonald House Charities of Charleston

WHAT WE DO: Keeping families with sick children together and near the care and resources they need. Since 1983, RMHC Charleston has been a "Home-away-from-home" where families stay while their children undergo extensive medical treatment. Here, parents and children lead a life as normal as possible during their traumatic times without the financial burden of costly hotel, meal, and travel expenses. Our home offers these families' comfortable beds, hot meals, a caring staff, and a four-legged friend, Gardy, all just steps from the hospital. We believe that when a child is in time of greatest need, families and communities can come together to create solutions, ultimately changing a child's life forever.
