Meet the Area
Welcome to the Ronald McDonald House of Mid-Michigan.
Our goal is to make this House, and Lansing, your home-away-from-home while you’re here with us. We know this is an extremely difficult and stressful time for you, so please don’t hesitate to let any of the House team members know if there’s anything we can do for you.
Thankfully, there are a tremendous amount of resources and activities in the area for families in addition to what the House provides. Feel free to refer to this list for potential places for food, aid and recreation for your family when the timing feels right.
