Carbondale McDonald's & RMHC

Turning spare change into nights together for local families.

Our restaurant is proud to support Ronald McDonald House Charities, helping keep families close to the care their children need through Round-Up for RMHC, donation boxes, and community events.

Every round-up, Happy Meal, and event makes a real difference for families with ill or injured children.

How giving at McDonald's supports RMHC families

Ronald McDonald House Charities is a nonprofit organization that helps keep families close to their hospitalized children with housing, meals, and support just steps from the hospital.

At McDonald's, guests can support RMHC year-round by rounding up their total to the nearest dollar, dropping spare change in RMHC Donation Boxes, and participating in in-restaurant fundraisers.

  • Round-Up for RMHC: Ask to round your total to the next dollar; the difference is donated to RMHC.
  • Donation Boxes: Place coins or cash in the RMHC Donation Boxes in our lobby and drive-thru.
  • Happy Meals & specials: A portion from select menu items and events goes to RMHC through local programs.
