RMHC Knoxville gives families with a child who is sick exactly what they need most – each other.
Tennessee’s first Ronald McDonald House opened in Knoxville on March 8, 1985. Since opening our doors, we have provided a home for nearly 60,000 people. Our families have come from 41 states, 10 foreign countries, and virtually every medical facility that treats pediatric patients.
The Ronald McDonald House of Knoxville provides a “home-away-from-home” for families of seriously ill children receiving treatment at nearby hospitals. The House provides a comfortable, supportive, temporary residence near the medical facility where family members can sleep, eat, relax and find support from other families in similar situations.

Everyone who has been involved with Ronald McDonald House Charities of Knoxville has a story to tell. Here are a few of our families stories and how RMHC Knoxville was able to help their family stay close.
Parents don’t know when their children will need medical help. But they should know they can always access the care they need. And with your help, we can support them all throughout their journey.
