Host Sunday Dinner

Thank you for your interest in volunteering and helping us to carry out our mission of helping provide a home-away-from home for seriously children and their families. 

Host Dinner - Open to individuals, groups, families, keiki

We let our families know that we will find volunteer hosts for dinner every Sunday, this is the one day that they don't have to worry about planning and cooking the meal while caring for their seriously ill child. Families at Ronald McDonald's House appreciate coming home to a warm meal., especially after a long day at the hospital either bedside or during medical treatments. You can host a meal for them at our Judd Hillside House by cooking onsite, contributing potluck style, or catering. Drop off meals also are welcome. If cooking at our Houses, bring your ingredients, you ohana and your passion for cooking!

Sunday 3:30 PM - 6:00 PM, dinner is served at 5:30 PM

Please plan your meal for 40 people. The families staying with us are often under a great deal of stress and appreciate a home-cooked, nourishing meal prepared by caring individuals and group volunteers int he community. Our two houses can accommodate a total of 17 families. The families' priority is to be at their seriously ill children's bedside and we cannot guarantee how many people will attend your scheduled meal. Be assured, however that the families appreciate your food and it will be eaten at a later hour. We suggest bringing food storage containers for leftovers as a large refrigerator is available for storage. This will allow family members who stay late with their child at the hospital to eat at their convenience.
