With approximately 78,000 square feet, the House offers 77 private bedrooms, six extended-stay suites, and six transplant apartments. Additionally, the House contains multiple playrooms for kids of all ages and interests, a library, media room, craft room, chapel, meditation garden, and outdoor play areas. Two large communal kitchens and dining room provide opportunities for the families to share the evening meal, which is provided three times a day by community volunteers, or to prepare their own food if they choose. Hundreds of volunteers support Ronald McDonald House of Dallas’ (RMHD) annual operations and fundraising activities by serving families at the House, preparing meals, and hosting organized activities. Donations are always accepted from families, but no one has ever been turned away because of an inability to pay. The cost per night to house a family is approximately $130— a cost largely covered by individual and corporate donors, community organizations, and special events. |
