Our Volunteers truly help to make Ronald McDonald House a ‘home away from home” for every guest, family member and visitor that has ever had any experience with our House. Their dependability and willingness to contribute their time and care helps to create a safe and welcoming environment where families can stay together when they need it the most. Our volunteers know the House inside and out and approach their volunteerism with full commitment and have the knowledge of what the House really means to everyone involved.

Family Meal Program
Come with a few friends and bring dinner for 45-50 guests. The meal may be pre-cooked, or it can be cooked in our kitchen. It is fun and the guests really appreciate having a meal to come home to. This is very important to our families so they will not have to worry about what they will eat. Family Meals can be scheduled for breakfast, lunch or dinner seven days a week.
Pull for the Kids Recycling Program
Participate in our pop tab program by collecting pull tabs from aluminum cans and donating to Ronald McDonald House. The program raises approximately $5 – 6,000 each year and goes toward the operating costs of Ronald McDonald House of Mobile.
Wish List Donor
Help fill the pantry with our Wish List items such as food and kitchen supplies. The list will vary depending on House needs. Weekly or monthly donations are greatly appreciated. For example- When you pick up groceries/supplies also pick up a few items for the House and drop it off for our families to enjoy.
