Become a Community Partner

Play a key role in helping families stay together

Ronald McDonald House Charities® Oklahoma City is able to change the lives of children and their families because of the generosity of Community Partners. Companies and organizations are an important part of helping RMHC-OKC deliver comfort and care to children and their families whether it’s through monetary gifts, in-kind donations or volunteering.

Share Your Treasure

Supporting RMHC-OKC can help local companies reach a target audience, build brand awareness and motivate employees while supporting your community.

  • RMHC-OKC hosts multiple fundraising events each year,  a Pickle Ball Tournament in March, Walk for Kids in June and the Red Shoe Rendezvous in September. We also hold three Cooking Together events throughout the year as well as a Giver and Gamers event in October, with a variety of sponsorship opportunities available.  For information about becoming a sponsor of any of our events please contact us at (405) 424-6873 or rmhc@rmhc-okc.org.
  • We understand that not all companies are interested in participating in special events but would still like to give back to the community. Help us help more families with a gift that benefits families directly. Share-a-Night by sponsoring a night, week, month, or even a year-long stay for a family. 
  • Provide your employees with the opportunity to double the impact of their donation by matching their gift.

Share Your Time

Many companies provide funds for hours volunteered by staff. As a highly rewarding way to support RMHC-OKC, funding volunteer hours achieves your philanthropic goals as well as inspires philanthropy among your employees. Employees can share their time in a variety of ways and many opportunities are great for groups.

  • Volunteer opportunities include our Guest Chef Program, projects at the House or Family Room and events like our annual Walk for Kids and Red Shoe Rendezvous.  
  • Employees and customers enjoy fulfilling a Wish List Drive to help keep our Houses well-provisioned for guest families. 
  • Employee managed fundraisers provide great opportunities for engaging in teamwork while actively supporting a meaningful cause. 
  • Businesses with special skills like salons can provide services like cuts, washes and blow-outs for our families.
