Our Founding and Forever Partner: McDonald's
McDonald’s Canada is more than a partner—it’s part of our story.
As our Founding and Forever Partner, McDonald’s plays a vital role in helping families from across BC and Yukon stay together and close to the care they need. McDonald’s is our largest donor, contributing approximately 25% of our overall fundraising revenues through national programs, local initiatives, and the generosity of guests like you.
We are deeply thankful for the continued partnership of every crew member, franchisee, supplier, corporate employee, and customer who supports Ronald McDonald House BC & Yukon. Together, they help provide comfort, care, and community to families navigating one of life’s most difficult journeys.
A Legacy of Support
From the very beginning, McDonald’s and its founder George Cohon believed in supporting families with sick children. Today, that legacy lives on through the collective efforts of McDonald’s Owner/Operators, restaurants, and guests across BC and Yukon.
