Thank you for considering the Los Angeles Ronald McDonald House for your volunteerism and time. We greatly appreciate your interest! The generous support of community members like you is crucial to maintaining our programs and services and continuing our mission of providing comfort, care, and support to families during their greatest time of need. We look forward to welcoming you to our “home away from home.”
Please see the sections below for more information about volunteering.
Individual Volunteers
Our House of 150+ people requires daily support to run smoothly. Individual volunteers are an incredible help to our staff and come in to assist with guest support, special projects, cooking, and leading activities on a weekly or bi-weekly basis for six months at a time. We do not offer short-term or summer-only volunteer opportunities, or volunteer hours for court-ordered community service.
Offsite Volunteers
Help directly support the families staying with us! Donate a meal, host a wish list drive, pack kits of snacks or comfort items, write cards, or donate your pull tabs! These options are great for large groups, young volunteers, and others who cannot make it onsite for a volunteer activity.
Volunteer Group
Bring your coworkers, classmates, or friends together to cook meals, host activities, complete a service project, or perform an offsite activity to provide resources for our families. Onsite groups are limited to 10-20 volunteers, depending on the activity.
Corporate Volunteers
Volunteer work provides companies and employees with a hands-on perspective of the good they can accomplish through corporate citizenship, and allows employees to come together for team building. Join us with your team for a day of volunteerism!
If you or your group are interested in receiving information about future volunteer opportunities, please email

Please note: Our facilities cannot accommodate court-ordered community service or probation-based hours.
