Long days at the hospital can make simple comforts hard to find. The Ronald McDonald House Ohio Valley Care Cart brings complimentary refreshments, essentials, and activities to patients and families at participating hospitals across our region—with a friendly connection when it’s needed most.
You don’t have to stay at a Ronald McDonald House to receive support. Several times a week, volunteers stock our carts and visit hospital hallways, bringing care to families with a loved one in the hospital.
Refreshments to help families stay nourished.
Everyday necessities for unexpected overnight stays.
Small distractions for children and siblings.
Thoughtful items that bring a sense of normalcy.
Our Care Carts serve families in hospitals across our region—and continue to grow—extending our mission beyond our walls to bring care, connection, and encouragement to families during their child’s treatment.
Behind every cart is a team of staff and volunteers who understand the power of small gestures.
They show up with a smile, a listening ear, and a willingness to meet families where they are—offering a quick snack, a moment of encouragement, or a distraction during a difficult day.
Volunteering with the Care Cart is a hands-on way to deliver care directly to families.
Every item on the cart is made possible by generous supporters. You can help keep our carts stocked and ready to serve by donating everyday essentials.
These everyday essentials become relief, distraction, and care.
Whether you’re looking for information about the Care Cart at a local hospital, interested in volunteering, or planning a donation drive, we’re here to help. Connect with our team to learn more.
