Community Grants
The Ronald McDonald House Charities of Western New York (RMHC) funds a Community Grants Program that supports not-for-profit organizations whose programs directly improve the health and well being of children in our Western New York communities.
Financial support for these grants comes from the local McDonald’s Restaurants and Owners/Operators of Western New York and Northwest Pennsylvania, McDonald’s Corporation, the national Ronald McDonald House Charities and donations from our Western New York community.
It’s important to note that while both the Ronald McDonald House of Buffalo and the Community Grants Program are part of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Western New York, each is a separate entity. Donations to Ronald McDonald House Charities of Western New York support both the House and the Community Grants Program. Grants are also supported by the national Ronald McDonald House Charities, which matches most local grants.
Since granting began in 1992, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Western New York has granted more than $390,000 in local funds and $310,000 in matching funds in support of the health and well being of thousands of Western New York children.
We are grateful to McDonald’s and our community for the support and opportunity they give us to reach beyond the walls of the Ronald McDonald House in support of children throughout Western New York.
