About Us

Our History

For 42 years, RMHSNJ has been a “home-away-from-home” for families whose children are hospitalized or in treatment.

Our Family Rooms, located in 9 South Jersey hospitals, are a comfortable place for parents, siblings, and extended family members to take a moment for themselves to rest and refresh while remaining on their child’s hospital floor.

In 1983, the first Ronald McDonald House in New Jersey opened its doors in a modest, 10-bedroom Victorian rowhome located behind Cooper University Healthcare. Over the years, the organization has been able to expand greatly, thanks to the generosity of donors like you.

In 1998, the Ronald McDonald House of Southern New Jersey built a larger facility, equipped with 25 bedroom suites, a family cinema, a parents’ gym with an adjacent kid zone, a marketplace, and a handicap-accessible playground.

Today, there are 390 Ronald McDonald House Programs around the world!
