We have a NEW Hospitality Cart rolling in the Piedmont Triad! Our carts extend the hospitality of our House and Family Room programs into medical centers throughout the community so we can reach even more families with comfort and care while children receive medical treatment. Our newest cart is now in service at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Family Medicine Premier. This is the 10th Cart we have rolled out, bringing comfort and care to kids in the Triad!
🚨Calling all meal heroes! Show support for the families we serve: volunteer to cook dinner! Volunteer signups tend to slow down this time of year, and we could really use your help. It's fun to cook at our House and providing meals makes families truly feel at home. Follow this link to sign up to help: https://vhub.at/mealsandbaking
We simply can't wait to see you all again at the second annual 2025 Wine Women & Shoes Winston-Salem! Mark your calendar for the most fashionable event in town on May 1, and get set to grab your tickets in February!

Thank you to the Piedmont Triad community, and a special thank you to our sponsors: 𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗦𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆, Lowes Foods, Morrisette Packaging, Truist, and Walmart for making all of the gorgeous displays of love and light possible through our Luminary project this year. Each shining luminary honored a family touched by Ronald McDonald House Charities. @morrisettepackaging @lowesfoods @truist @walmart
RMHCPT created NICU milestone cards to help parents celebrate small milestones and victories while their child is receiving care. It is a privilege to celebrate the joy of these milestones with the families who stay with us. ❤
Wishing everyone sweet times together and precious memories this holiday season!
We expected generous support from the community and made extra luminaries - but our friends across the Triad exceeded our expectations with this outpouring of love for the families we serve! We apologize for the inconvenience to anyone who has not yet ordered luminaries. We hope you'll join us in celebrating the glow of luminaries that will honor our families on Christmas Eve.

It's true: big kids and moms can seem a little tougher to shop for. But we like to make sure that siblings, big kids, and their parents receive some cheer when our House is their home away from home for the holidays. Luckily we have a handy list of these much-needed items to help you shop: rmhcpt.org/make-a-difference/holidays. We're still accepting gifts to stock Santa's workshop! Please deliver all donations 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘂𝗻𝘄𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱.
A big thank you to the DJ Rowell Foundation for making RMHCPT part of your Christmas backpack tour! DJ has been coast to coast this month visiting Ronald McDonald Houses, bringing these adorable backpacks and spreading love to the children and families we serve. It's been an annual tour for 5 years now and continues to grow thanks to a partnership with Amazon. We enjoyed having you at our House and we're grateful for this special gift! @djrowellfoundation
Weston Smith has a special place in his heart for RMHCPT because he was born prematurely nine years ago. This is his third year raising donations for us for the holidays, and he is so proud to present us with a check for $1,000 this year! We love watching this generous young man grow bigger and stronger every year! Thank you, Weston! ❤
