With so many kids staying at the House, you can imagine how quickly our snack shelves get depleted!

This week, we could especially use individually packaged, grab-and-go snacks like granola bars, crackers, chips, fruit snacks and other kid-friendly favorites. 💛

Shop our Amazon Wish List and ship directly to the House, or drop off donations at 850 2nd Street SW, Rochester.

Back-to-school shopping looks a little different when your family is away from home.

At our recent Back to School Bash, families were able to pick out school supplies, clothing and other essentials without having to find time for another shopping trip.

Most left with multiple bags in hand—and one of our favorite parts was watching families help one another dig through donations to find just the right sizes and supplies. ❤️

A little less to worry about and a lot of excitement for the school year ahead!

As Mayo Clinic celebrates its staff this week, we’re reflecting on the many ways Mayo Clinic employees have generously shared their time, talents and resources with Ronald McDonald House over the years. ❤️

From longtime Board and committee members to dedicated volunteers and supporters, Mayo Clinic employees have been woven into our mission in countless ways—sharing their expertise, ideas and time to help us better serve families.

We’re grateful for the many individuals who continue to show up for our House and the families who call it home.

To our friends at Mayo Clinic: we hope you feel celebrated this week. Thank you for all you do!

Some places are easier to understand once you've experienced them. 💛

A tour of Ronald McDonald House is more than a walk through our building—it's an opportunity to see how comfort, community, and care come together for families with a hospitalized child.

Whether it's your first visit or you've supported the House for years, we'd love to show you around.

Our Next Welcome Wednesday:
September 16, 2026 from 4-6 pm

Please RSVP so we know to expect you: https://conta.cc/4gQGbJK

The Ronald McDonald Family Room at Mayo Clinic Hospital – Saint Marys Campus recently reached an exciting milestone: six months of caring for families. ❤️

In those first six months, we welcomed more than 5,000 family check-ins.

That’s thousands of opportunities to grab a meal, do a load of laundry, rest, recharge or simply step away from the hospital environment for a little while—all while staying close to a loved one receiving care.

More than anything, 5,000+ check-ins is an incredible reminder of just how much this space was needed and the difference it is making every day.

Thank you to everyone who helped make the Family Room possible and continues to support the families who walk through its doors. 💛

All the way from Oregon! 🍋💛

Ivy and Holly recently raised an incredible $1,130.52 through their lemonade stand in McMinnville, Oregon.

With a family member currently staying at Ronald McDonald House here in Rochester, the girls chose to put their earnings toward sponsoring meals for families at the House.

We’re so grateful to Ivy, Holly and their community for the incredible support from more than 1,000 miles away!

ICYMI: We’re building something big at Ronald McDonald House. 💛

Last month, we launched our More Than a Meal Campaign to build a new commercial kitchen—one designed to meet the needs of our growing House and daily meal program.

A lemonade stand with a whole lot of heart. 🍋❤️

Corbin and Gavin used the money they earned from their lemonade stand to purchase books for kids staying at Ronald McDonald House.

After watching a friend go through cancer treatment, they wanted to do something to help other kids like him. We’re so grateful they chose to share their kindness with our families!

We could really use our community’s help this September. ❤️

We have more open House Dinner dates than usual, but families are still counting on a warm meal waiting for them at the end of each day.

Gather your coworkers, sports team, college group, friends or family and spend an evening in our kitchen. Your time helps make dinner one less thing families have to think about while their focus is on their child.

**Help us fill our September calendar and keep dinner on the table every day.**

Reserve your date: https://conta.cc/4d7Q8AG

Remember when we said Nixon had a little fun with our friends at KTTC TV while he was here? Now you can see why. ❤️

From his favorite Rochester burger spot to the little ducks he handed out to people he met along the way, Nixon made quite an impression during his 53 nights here!

We loved watching his personality shine in this Kids With Courage feature—and we’re so glad this kiddo is back home in Canada!

Thank you, KTTC, for sharing Nixon and his family’s story so beautifully.
