Ronald McDonald House New England is responding to the growing need for pediatric family housing by launching a multi-year fundraising campaign to build a new flagship house in Boston. This new facility aims to accommodate over 2,000 international families annually, providing them with free housing for the duration of their child's critical treatment. The organization currently operates 10 suites at its Boston Harbor location, serving families from 39 states and countries, and has saved families approximately $2.7 million in lodging, meals, parking, and support costs in 2025. The campaign seeks to engage the Boston community to help realize this vision, ensuring that families have a place to call home while accessing the exceptional medical care available in the city.
