THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING OUR FAMILIES. Baby Nora was born very early, weighing less than one pound. For four months, her family stayed at the Ronald McDonald House. “The Ronald McDonald House wasn’t just our ‘home away from home’ the summer of 2015, it WAS our home. And when the time came, it was very hard to say goodbye.” - Moriah, Nora’s mom
Today, Nora is happy and healthy, loving life with her big brother, James.

Ronald McDonald House near Cox South:
The Tooth Truck:
Ronald McDonald House at Mercy Kids:
Located just across from Cox South, the Ronald McDonald House has been a home to so many families over the years, providing comfort, meals and support. Since opening its doors in 1988, the Ronald McDonald House near Cox South has welcomed 9,507 families in need, providing a place to call home nearby their seriously ill or injured child. The Ronald McDonald Care Mobile®, fondly known as the “Tooth Truck™,” provides dental treatments and prevention education for at-risk children, primarily in school-based settings. A joint project between RMHC of the Ozarks and The Tooth Truck, Inc., the program has provided nearly 48,000 dental appointments for more than 20,300 children in over thirteen years of operation, which is valued at more than $12 million. Since November of 2012, the Ronald McDonald House at Mercy Kids has been open to over 1,700 families in need, allowing them to stay just steps away from their seriously ill or injured child. Located on the sixth floor of Mercy Kids in Springfield, this 8,200-square-foot “home away from home” welcomes up to 10 families every night for overnight stays, and even more families who benefit from daytime-only hospital visits.

Your Support
Can Make a Huge Difference.
Every year, Ronald McDonald House Charities helps children and their families right here in the Ozarks.
Every family and child that comes to Ronald McDonald House Charities® of the Ozarks has a story, and no two stories are the same. To families, the Ronald McDonald House® provides a refuge. These are families whose seriously ill or injured children are facing trials no child should have to face. To children, the Ronald McDonald House Care Mobile® (fondly known as the Tooth Truck™) provides healthy smiles and a restored self-confidence that cannot be contained. Your generosity allows our families and children to continue to walk over the threshold of the Ronald McDonald Houses, or step up to the Tooth Truck and feel relieved, sheltered, and cared for. We all walk a different path in life, but together we can keep the Ronald McDonald Houses open for families who need to be mere steps away from their seriously ill or injured children and the Tooth Truck on the road for children to be a short walk away from cavity-free smiles. Thank you for putting yourself in the shoes of these families and children. Thank you for taking steps to provide hope to those who need it most.

Jake Simpson: The Standard Starring OWN Network Star Jake Simpson
Long before his prizewinning Pop performances on Star Search, his now infamous R&B duets on The Oprah Winfrey Show or sharing the stage with artists like Earth, Wind & Fire, Adam Lambert and Stevie Wonder, singer JAKE SIMPSON was best known across the mid-Southwest as an up-and-coming 18-karat Gasser who paid for college by playing hopping jazz joints from Branson to Kansas City. Well, start spreading the news, because now Simpson revisits these beloved standards in his new show entitled ‘The Standard.’ A ring-a-ding evening of fresh & soulful arrangements from the Great American Songbook with Classic Rhythm & Blues Standards! Lively, Uptempo and Fun! Expect to hear your favorites made famous by Sinatra, Torme, Hathaway, Wonder & more. Not your any old standard, critics rave about Simpson’s “blue-eyed soul” and powerhouse vocals!
