Ways to Support RMHC of the Four States
Donate Now- Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Four States relies on the generosity of donors to help us provide the services of our Ronald McDonald House and Ronald McDonald Family Room to families with seriously ill children being treated at our local hospitals.
Sponsor a Family - The last thing we want our families to worry about is whether they can afford to stay together. Families are asked to contribute $10 per night but if that is not possible then their stay is sponsored. Consider sponsoring a night, a week or a month. For more information on how you can sponsor a family, contact the RMH Program Manager at 417-624-2273 or housemanager@rmhjoplin.org
Leave A Legacy - For just $100 you can leave a lasting legacy of caring with this generous gift. The brick you purchase will be inscribed with the inscription of your choice and permanently placed in the garden patio of the "House That Love Build."
Planned Giving - Remember Ronald McDonald House of the Four States with a Charitable Bequest in your will or as a beneficiary on a retirement plan or life insurance. Many of our supporters choose to support our future through planned gifts. Unlike cash donations, planned gifts are typically made from assets in your estate rather than from disposable income, and may come to fruition after your lifetime. Even people of modest means can make a difference in the lives of children by planning a gift. Contact Annette Thurston, Executive Director at 417-624-2273 or annette@rmhjoplin.org to discuss your planned giving arrangements.
