RMHC Endowment

As part of the We Believe Campaign, a Ronald McDonald House Charities Endowment has been established at the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation. This fund will allow any Ronald McDonald House throughout the world to apply directly for grants from the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation, allowing us to provide support for:

Houses that do not have an ADPi chapter or alumnae association nearby supporting them
New houses being built
Existing houses being renovated
Family rooms that are being expanded and renovated

Alpha Delta Pi supports approximately 40% of RMHC’s chapters worldwide, leaving significant room to grow our support for the House that Love Built.

At Grand Convention 2019, the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation announced the inaugural grants from the RMHC Endowment. Five grants of $5,000 each were awarded to the following local RMHCs:

Arkansas in support of a Ronald McDonald House Family Room
Bismarck, ND in support of an expanded meal program
Idaho in support of construction of the Family Room within Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center
New Mexico to support of the first purpose-built Ronald McDonald House in a hotel
Siouxland, IA for the RMHC of Siouxland Family Kitchen & Lunch Program
