The gentle touch of a child's hand, a smile between siblings and the warm embrace between parent and child tell us that what we do at Ronald McDonald House Toronto through our generous donors, partners and volunteers is worth it.

As the medical profession embraces "family centered" care, Ronald McDonald House Toronto plays a vital role in pediatric health-care.  Travelling to Toronto, seeking life-saving treatment for their seriously ill child, families who arrive at the House find a much-needed refuge and community of support. With world class hospitals just steps away, the demand for Ronald McDonald House Toronto is great. Providing an environment that alleviates the day to day anxiety and stress of coping with and caring for a seriously ill child who is battling cancer, preparing for an organ transplant, or dealing with a debilitating disease is what we do well.

Independently owned and operated by Toronto Children's Care Inc., Ronald McDonald House Toronto has a significant need to fundraise in our community through many valuable friends and partners. In a time where the economic climate is challenging the boundaries of philanthropy, we are encouraged by our many partners who remain committed to our mission.

By donating to Canadian Thrift Stores, you are helping provide a "home away from home" for seriously ill children and their families to heal better together.  Each month Canadian Thrift Stores graciously donates a percentage of their net sales to Ronald McDonald House Toronto.  Thank you for providing hope during the most frightening time in a family’s life.
