WHO WE ARE

In the late 1980s, a community-minded group of individuals came together to raise funds to build a Ronald McDonald House. In 1991, The Ronald McDonald House of Southwest Florida became incorporated, and in December 1996, The Ronald McDonald House of Southwest Florida opened its doors to children and families. In 2003, we incorporated as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and became the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Southwest FL (RMHC SWFL). We have continued to expand to serve families and children in our community…

In 2004 – We added our first Ronald McDonald Care Mobile to serve children in Collier County.
