Hello! Things are the Ronald McDonald Houses in New Mexico have been very busy lately, but very rewarding! Now that we have two Houses, we have the ability to serve an additional 20 families, enabling us to serve a total of 51 families each day in NM! The CEO, staff, and Board members continue to seek ways to increase fundraising, staffing, and meal support, and bring a little light each day to the families we serve.
The RMHC-NM Board is a great team of individuals who support our mission to help families with medical needs across NM. We strive to expand our presence and services, and increase our work with our hospital partners while continuing to meet our budget goals. Serving the families and children of NM is all our responsibility and privilege.
We are all very excited for our inaugural Farm to Table(aux) event to take place in 2023. This one-of-a-kind fundraising event will be held on September 16, 2023, at the Electric Playhouse. We hope to see you there!
That you for taking the time to learn a little more about RMHC-NM. We appreciate your support.

He and his wife, Katia, returned decades later for their daughter’s surgery and recovery. Learn more about their experience and message to other RMHC families in their heartfelt video above.
