HOUSE CHARITIES
I was opened
in 1979.
If our walls could talk, they’d tell of the more than 35,000 families who’ve stayed
at the Atlanta Ronald McDonald Houses. For 30 years, our facilities have offered
more than just shelter to those with sick and injured children. They’ve provided a
structure – an opportunity – for normalcy when everything else was chaos.
Our walls became their refuge; our House became their home.
We began with one House and eight bedrooms and today offer two Houses with
61 bedrooms, including ten transplant suites. Today the Atlanta Ronald McDonald
Houses are an integral part of the world-renowned pediatric care available in our
city. People come from all over the state and region to access this expert care, and
when they do, we can offer them a place to call home.
We welcome you to our home and invite you to learn more about our mission
through the eyes of those who’ve benefited the most. Spanning our 30 years here
in Atlanta, these stories are our inspiration and the reason we will work to provide
another 30 years of comfort and hope for even more families.

I was 12
and terminally ill.
I was 12 when I had to sidetrack
my strategy for fitting in at school
and replace it with my strategy for
staying alive.
Acute lymphocytic leukemia is what
doctors called it; others just labeled it
“childhood leukemia.” Whatever you
call it, it had attacked my body and
left me weak and in need of a bone
marrow transplant.
I was scared. My family was scared.
Everything happened quickly, though
I don’t remember much of it.
pg. 2
What I do remember is the warmth that
I felt at the Atlanta Ronald McDonald
House. It was such a kind place. And
cheerful! You might not think of a place
like that as being happy, but it is.
I also remember being so grateful that
we could stay somewhere together and
not have to drive into the city for all my
treatments. It took a lot of stress off all
of us.
We could rest. We could try to be
normal. We could talk to other families
who were going through the same thing.
pg. 
Today I am
a survivor.
Today I am 25 and a student in fashion
design. I’m looking at the future and
thinking about my internship,
graduation, maybe a business degree.
I’m wondering if a move to New York
is in order.
I am more independent today, more
successful in my life. When I think
about then and now, it’s hard to know
where to start. I was in a wheelchair
then. It was hard to reclaim my
independence after all that time, but
once I did, I embraced it.
My life is about school, studying and
work now – maybe a movie if I can fit
it in!
Life without the House would’ve been
drastically different for all of us. It
would’ve been a lot rougher. Having my
family with me meant everything. And
having the kind of support that the
Atlanta Ronald McDonald House gives,
well, it’s made me a better person.
Today I am more warmhearted toward
people. I’m more empathetic because
that’s what I learned from some of the
kindest people in the world.

“It was such a kind place.
And cheerful! You might not think
of a place like that as being happy,
but it is. We really bonded with the
House managers who all gave us
such support the whole time.”
DAVID¾ FARMER
Stayed at the House while being treated
for childhood leukemia
Staff and volunteers at the
Atlanta Ronald McDonald Houses work
diligently to ensure it is an environment
that fosters optimism for families,
buoying them through their hardest moments.
Beautiful landscaping, natural light and views to
the outside world contribute to the healing
process. A hug at the door, a listening ear
and someone to rejoice with when good news
finally arrives can help a lot, too.

I was caught
in a whirlwind.
Twice.
I was the new mother of a beautiful
baby girl who was dying because her
liver wasn’t functioning. When Lily
was 54 days old, she underwent a liver
transplant in Atlanta and we became
very grateful for the Atlanta Ronald
McDonald House.
Then it happened again.
Four years after Lily, I was the new
mother of a beautiful baby boy who
appeared perfect in every way. In fact,
doctors first thought he was free of the
genetic defect that had threatened Lily.
But he wasn’t. It was the same awful
whirlwind again.
When he was 10 days old, Sawyer
became the youngest-ever successful
pg. 8
liver transplant patient in the world,
and once again, we let the House
envelope us and become our “home
away from home.”
I don’t know what our family would
have done without the Atlanta Ronald
McDonald House. It was the hugest
help and blessing for our family. It was
our refuge.
If there was not an Atlanta Ronald
McDonald House, thousands of families
would be without a place to stay where
they could be with their sick children.
When your child is that sick, the last
place you want to be is away. The House
afforded us the opportunity for at least
one parent to always be by their sides.
pg. 
Today I am
thankful and
full of hope.
Today, I am the mother of two very
happy, fun-loving and compassionate
kids. I am blessed, proud, amazed and so
very thankful.
Lily is almost 14. She takes ballroom
dancing. She loves to draw and read;
she writes beautifully and sings like an
angel. She wants to be a cardiologist
one day.
His room is a matrix of construction
that we’ve dubbed “LEGO City,” and
his dream is to be an engineer one day.
They laugh and tumble and love to jump
on the trampoline and play with their
friends. Lily is the consummate big sister
to her little brother whose health is still
vulnerable. Both have warm, tender
hearts and they really worry about other
children who are sick or sad.
Sawyer is the fastest runner I’ve met!
This nine-year-old can beat you in a 50- These days we all have perspective and
yard dash when he’s not drawing one of
not one of us takes one single day for
his inventions like the “flying surfboard.” granted. We’ve learned that life is meant
to be cherished.

With an average stay of ten nights at one of the
Atlanta Ronald McDonald Houses, families save, on
average, $96 per night or about $960 per ten-night
stay. For the nearly 2,000 families we’ve served in the
last year, that’s a savings of close to $2 million.*

As the need grows, so do the Atlanta Ronald
McDonald Houses. We opened our first House
on Houston Mill Road in 1979, offering just eight
bedrooms. In 1994, we added 11 bedrooms when
our second House on Peachtree Dunwoody Road
opened. In 2008, the original House was replaced
with a sophisticated 50-room, LEED® certified,
$15.7 million facility. To date, the Atlanta Ronald
McDonald Houses have been able to help more
than 35,000 families.
FAMILY CONTRIBUTION
$20/night
The Atlanta Ronald McDonald Houses provide a
safe haven that allows parents to focus on their
child’s recovery. While at the House, families are
asked to make a $20 per night contribution, which
amounts to about one third of the actual cost to
house a family per night. No family is ever turned
away for financial reasons, which makes donations
and volunteerism critical to our mission.
pg. 
I was so weak.
The doctors told us that I needed a
new heart. My family lives in Venezuela,
so traveling to Atlanta was a very long
trip. But after many doctors in many
places told us this was the best place
for me, we came.
And we waited.
But the problem got worse, so I was
put at the top of the list. I was so weak,
I could barely stand up and walk, but I
refused a wheelchair. I preferred to walk
holding onto my mother and father.
pg. 
We were all scared and a long way
from home, but the Atlanta Ronald
McDonald House helped us so much.
It was like a home, not a hotel where
we would’ve been alone. There were
also other families we could talk to
and share with.

On September 3, 2001 the hospital
called. There was a heart for me.
Everyone at the House was so happy
for us.

Today I am
healthy.
Eight years later, I am healthy.
I come back to Atlanta twice a year
now for check ups, and every time, we
stay at the House. It’s like our family.
We feel very connected to the people
here. They help us so much and
are all so good to us.
It would’ve been very different for us
if we had not had the Atlanta Ronald
McDonald House to come to.
Today, I am 20 years old and studying
to be a computer scientist. I program
computers and would like to one day
work for a big company or even create
my own.
I study a lot and work very hard. When
I’m not busy with school, I like to hang
out outside and just be a regular person.
If I could talk to people who do not
know about the House or who have
never been through what my family and
I have been through, I would tell them
it is a wonderful place, that it’s a place
they can come to any time. It’s a home
for a family.

“If there were not an Atlanta
Ronald McDonald House, thousands
of families would be without a
place to stay with their sick children.
When your child is that sick, the last
place you want to be is away.”
JENNIFER¾ SPADGENSKE
Mother of two children who underwent liver
transplants as infants
In the face of mounting medical
and prescription bills, having a safe and
comfortable place to stay for an extended
period of time is invaluable.
While at the Atlanta Ronald McDonald
Houses, families are asked to make a $2o per
night contribution, which amounts to about
one third of the actual cost to cover operating
expenses. No family is ever turned away
for financial reasons, which makes
donations and volunteerism
so critical to our mission.

Today, our child
has a second chance.
Meet Mason. Born in October 2008,
Mason has spent much of his young
life fighting to see his first birthday and
literally stopped breathing nine times
– six of those in one night, recounts
his mom, Jessica Ring.
Doctors call this tiny patient a miracle
and marvel at his strength. Today,
Mason is on the verge of walking like
other babies his age and is keeping his
mom and dad busy with normal oneyear-old antics.
Doctors determined Mason needed a
new heart, so the waiting began.
The Rings, who live near Milledgeville,
Georgia, return to Atlanta twice a month
for checkups and treatment. Each time,
they stay in their “home away from home”
and remember the comfort the Atlanta
Ronald McDonald House brought them
during their darkest moments.
“We checked into the Atlanta Ronald
McDonald House, and I don’t know
what we’d have done without it. This
became our family. It was our home
away from home,” Jessica said.
The call came in the middle of the night
in late February and Mason was rushed
to surgery.

Today I am 30
and serve nearly 2,000
families each year.
I am the House built by many hands, occupied and cherished by thousands. I am
brick and mortar, yes. But I am more. More than walls and halls and bedrooms and
stairs, I am a warm dinner at the end of a trying day. I am a cuddle on a couch, a
lullaby, a nighttime story. I am restful sleep with dreams of a morning that might
just bring a rainbow.
From the beginning, the need was great,
and our community responded. From
eight bedrooms in 1979 to 61 in 2009,
the Atlanta Ronald McDonald Houses
have grown exponentially. But so has
the need.
And because the need will continue to
grow, so must we.
When we opened our 50-room, LEED®
certified facility on Gatewood Road,
near Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta
pg. 
at Egleston in June 2008, we celebrated
its ability to serve transplant patients,
its beauty, efficiency, and its $16.2
million testament to the generosity and
compassion of a community. But in the
end, we celebrated because it represents
one crucial thing: We can help more.
Today the Atlanta Ronald McDonald
Houses stand ready to give more families
more hope, and we look to you to help
us tell tomorrow’s story.

Dear Friends and Donors,
In 2008, the Atlanta Ronald McDonald Houses increased capacity by 300% in
our continuing efforts to provide a safe haven for families of children receiving
specialized medical treatment at Atlanta-area hospitals.
Between our two local Houses – one located on Gatewood Road near Children’s
Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston and the other located on Peachtree Dunwoody
Road near Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite there are now 61
bedrooms, including 10 two-bedroom suites which can accommodate families of
children who have received heart, liver, kidney and bone and marrow transplants.
Thanks to the dedication of our Board of Directors, staff and volunteers we were
able to open our doors and hearts to nearly 1,250 families last year. Some stayed for
one night, while others stayed for months at a time. And we are anticipating serving
as many as 3,000 families annually in the coming years.
We are very grateful to you for being among the community of generous individuals,
corporations, organizations and foundations who demonstrated support of our
mission of providing comfortable, temporary housing and emotional support to
families whose children are receiving life-saving medical treatment.
Thank you for being beacons of hope and for bringing comfort into the lives of so
many deserving families.
