Background

  • The Ronald McDonald House provides temporary housing, at little or no cost, for the families of seriously ill children receiving treatment at any of the Bismarck medical facilities.
  • The Ronald McDonald Care Mobile is a state of the art mobile dental clinic that provides oral health care to underserved children in thier own neighborhoods in western North Dakota.  The Care Mobile will treat children ages 0-21 who do not have a regular dentist or who have not seen a dentist in the past two years.  The priority service areas will be schools with 50% or greater of their students participating in the free or reduced fee lunch programs.  While the majority of the children seen will be medicaid eligilbe, no child will be turned away for inability to pay. We anticipating serving between 800-1,000 children each year. 
  • The RMHC Grant program awards a total of $26,250 in grants each September to other local 501(c)3 organiziations that directly benefit children with an emphasis on health care. These grants are funded by donations in the local McDonald's restaurants and are matched on a 1/1 basis with the national RMHC organization.
