The Albany Ronald McDonald House provides a home away from home for families with children receiving critical care at nearby hospitals. Fresh, hot meals provided by caring community members bring comfort and hope to these families when they need it most.

Our Meal Program guidelines are designed to protect the health and safety of our guests and ensure a positive experience for all volunteers and support. There are several ways you can help ensure that love is served:

Gather a group of 2-4 volunteers to cook dinner (serving 30-40 guests) at the Ronald McDonald House. Please see below for additional guidelines.

To sign up a volunteer meal group, please contact Julia Wager, House Manager, at (518) 438-2655 or email jwager@rmhcofalbany.org.
