About the Organization

At Ronald McDonald House British Columbia and Yukon,  we envision a province where families stay close to their sick children. Today, 2 out of 3 Canadians live in a city or town without a children's hospital. Our Mission is to give sick children the healing power of being together with family.

As a champion of family-centered care, we enable access to children's hospitals by providing families with sick children accommodation, meals, and wellness programs that support their emotional and physical well-being. 

Since opening our first 13-bedroom House in Vancouver in 1983, Ronald McDonald House BC & Yukon has continued to grow to meet the rising need for support. In 2014, we opened a new 73-bedroom House on the grounds of BC Children's Hospital, along with a 2,000 sq. ft. Ronald McDonald Family Room inside Surrey Memorial Hospital. In 2025, we expanded once again, opening a new Ronald McDonald House Family Room at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops, bringing comfort, care, and a place to rest to families in the BC Interior. We are also opening a new Ronald McDonald House Family Room in Prince George at University of Northern British Columbia later this year to serve families in Northern BC.

As the second-largest Ronald McDonald House in Canada and one of the largest in the world, we are planning for even greater impact. With exciting expansion plans underway, we aim to double our capacity and impact across BC and the Yukon over the next five years, ensuring even more families can stay close when it matters most.

Our team is the backbone of this mission; serving families, supporting volunteers and donors, and helping spread awareness every single day.
