More about the foundation

Fundacja Ronalda McDonalda is part of the international Ronald McDonald House organisation, which operates in over 60 countries worldwide. This global network runs hundreds of programs, most notably Ronald McDonald Houses, which provide crucial support to families of seriously ill children. These Houses offer free-of-charge accommodation, nutritious meals, mental health resources, and community support, allowing families to focus entirely on their child's health.

In Poland, the Foundation is currently constructing its third Ronald McDonald House, a much-needed facility in this region of Europe. It is strategically located next to The Children’s Memorial Health Institute (IPCZD) in Warsaw, the country’s most important children’s hospital.

Our readers and CEE Property Forum guests are also invited to donate €60 (equalling one night of comfort and care for a family at the Ronald McDonald House) or more directly to the Foundation: https://frm.org.pl/donate-and-help/

This partnership is the first step of a long-term CEE-wide initiative, with proceeds collected this year benefiting the Foundation's work in Poland, followed by Slovakia next year, and other CEE countries in the future.

We encourage everyone to participate in this meaningful initiative and support Fundacja Ronalda McDonalda in their invaluable work.
