Kathy Papadimitriou, CEO, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Charleston
The Ronald McDonald House Charities of Charleston opened its doors 35 years ago as a “Home-away-from-home” where families stay while their children undergo extensive medical treatment. Today, the House is able to serve 32 families every single night.
At the House, parents and children lead a life as normal as possible during their traumatic times without the financial burden of costly hotel and travel expenses. Ronald McDonald House Charities home offers these families’ comfortable beds, hot meals, a caring staff, and a four-legged friend, Gardy, all just steps from the hospital.
The vision for the House going forward is to expand capacity and also to adjust for the realities and challenges posed by COVID-19.
