Toy & Food Donation
Donate Toys
You can donate new toys, books and games to the playrooms at either our Ronald McDonald House or Ronald McDonald Family Rooms. Because we serve so many children and families, we can only accept new toys — our playroom items get more use than toys played with at home.
Toys that make great donations include:
- Board games
- Books for various reading levels (English and Spanish)
- Puzzles
- Video games (rated E)
- Movies (rated G)
- Balls and outdoor games
Donate Food
Our Ronald McDonald House and Ronald McDonald Family Rooms provide visiting families with stocked kitchens. Canned goods and nonperishable food items make great donations, and they make it easy for families to fix meals and snacks without worrying about grocery shopping.
Wish List
Donating everyday household products is another way to help. We need the same products as your home, but they need them in bulk because several families stay in House and Family Room every night.
Donating any of these items, as new, can help us better serve families:
- Paper products (facial tissue, toilet paper, paper towels)
- Trash bags
- Aluminum foil, plastic wrap and sandwich bags
- Laundry detergent and fabric softener
- Cleaning products (sponges, dishwashing liquid, dishwasher detergent)
- Bath and bedroom items (towels, shower curtains, sheets and pillow cases)
- Personal care products (deodorant, dental floss, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, conditioner)
- Entertainment products (games, movies, books, art supplies)
- Phone cards
- Gift cards for local grocery stores and gas stations
- Greeting cards and postage stamps
