Keeping Families Close

RMHC of Idaho gives families with an ill or injured child exactly what they need most – each other.

At Ronald McDonald House Charities of Idaho, we are helping families face the burden of their child’s illness together. They have enough worries attending to the complicated medical needs of their child, maintaining their jobs, caring for other children or family members and keeping up with medical and out-of-pocket expenses – at RMHC of Idaho, we care for the family so they can focus on their ill or injured child.

Smith Family Story

The neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is a specialized unit of the hospital, and it had just become our second home for the next 68 days. It wasn’t until one of our usual evening strolls with the dogs that I noticed the baby feeling a bit lower than usual. Given my status as a type […]
