Get Your Group Involved Today with Meals that Heal
We believe in the power of a home-cooked meal to bring comfort and warmth to families during challenging times. We invite you to join us in creating these special moments by volunteering to prepare and serve meals to our guest families. Groups can donate and serve a catered meal or gather ingredients from a pre-set menu and cook together in our fully equipped kitchen — and give families the warmth and comfort of home away from home.
We believe that food is love. We’d love to work with your group!

Long-Term Partnerships Build our Community
Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Indiana is a local institution. We have thrived and helped thousands of families thanks to our local business partners, franchisees, philanthropists, and everyone else.
“I support RMHCCIN because I’ve seen the positive impact the House has on families already going through an exceptionally rough time dealing with a child’s illness. I’ve never met a more dedicated and caring team than my friends at the House and I’ve been blessed to be able to play a small role in helping families stay near their loved ones.” – Jack Bernard with Safelite
