Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

We offer temporary lodging for families having critically ill children. See page Part III for more information.

  • Our Main Purpose - Housing Families: The Ronald McDonald House offers temporary lodging for families having critically ill children, 21 years of age or younger, being treated in area hospitals. In our thirty-nine years of operation we have served approximately 60,400 people. Beside the obvious financial advantage of staying at our home-away-from-home where we gladly waive the $5.00 per night requested donation if it is prohibitive, there is the additional benefit of meeting other families who are experiencing similar medical problems with their children. Its a place where they can draw additional comfort and support from friendships that are born here. In addition to lodging, our supportive community helps provide all the comforts of home such as food, laundry facilities, transportation,free wi-fi...all of which are included in their stay. We can accomodate 65 people or 15 families in the two houses we operate. By years end, we had received referrals from three different medical facilities that represented families from 17 various states and 41 counties from across Tennessee. What brought these people to our doors? The most prevalent reasons were newborn complications such as prematurity and respiratory issues, cancer, and brain and spinal issues. There were as manyother medical conditions that also brought families. Although we have no length of stay restrictions, the average length of stay was 9 days. As long as a child is hospitalized, family members including extended family and siblings have been welcome.

    Expenses $615,185

  • Our Secondary Purpose - Grantmaking: One of the hallmarks of the McDonalds corporation over the years has been their unqualified commitment to children. As a legacy to McDonalds founder, Ray Kroc, Ronald McDonald Childrens Charities or RMCC was founded to champion philanthropic groups worldwide that were dedicated to the betterment of children. In an effort to streamline their organization to make a greater impact on a local level, the Global McDonalds office requested that RMCC and Ronald McDonald Houses across the country consolidate which was the genesis of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Knoxville, TN, Inc. in 1996. Funding and operating the Knoxville Ronald McDonald House will always remain the number one priority of the non-profit and monies raised under the auspices of supporting the Ronald McDonald House will be used exclusively for that purpose and are maintained in a separate account.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
