Adopt-a-Family

Why your generous donation is so important

• The actual cost to provide our special brand of hospitality for families is approximately $125 per night. However, 50% of families can’t afford even the suggested $10 contribution due to the enormous financial strain they find themselves in during this stressful time.
• And that $125 doesn’t even include the cost of meals and incidentals that RMHCA helps cover for families. Our services saves a family of four $360 a night. That adds up to more than $6 million in savings for families each year.

• A comfortable place to sleep to help improve quality of life
• Close proximity (1 block) to their hospitalized child
• The possibility to keep the family unit together
• Financial relief they desperately need
• Ongoing support from staff, volunteers and other families
• Shared common areas, where families receive support from each other
• Home-cooked meals by the hundreds of volunteers on a daily basis
• Laundry facilities and WiFi internet access
• Fun activities and entertainment
