On June 30, 1982, the Albany Ronald McDonald House welcomed its very first guests. Since then, more than 20,000 families have experienced the warm embrace of “The House That Love Built,” and each year, the depth and breadth of services offered by Ronald McDonald House Charities grows.
On June 30, 2022, celebrated 40 Years of Love with a one-of-a-kind, anniversary gala at the Albany Capital Center. An amazing volunteer committee planned an incredible birthday celebration, where all in attendance were able to experience the mission and the magic of RMHC-CR.
