DEADLINE: AUGUST 29, 2014

Ronald McDonald House Charities aims to improve the health and well-being of children through direct programming and partnerships with other nonprofit organizations around the world that are making an immediate, positive impact on children. RMHC takes a holistic, family-centered approach to bridging access to care and is interested in partnering with organizations that have a similar philosophy.

To that end, the RMHC Global Grant program supports sustainable replicable projects that are national or global in scope. Projects must include a train-the-trainer component and address issues related to children’s healthcare.

To be eligible, organizations must be based in the United States, be able to demonstrate proven outcomes, and have strong partnerships with key stakeholders. RMHC will only consider organizations whose project methodology involves a comprehensive ethnographic approach to research, program development, program implementation, and evaluation.

Visit the RMHC website for complete program guidelines, information about previous grant recipients, and application instructions.
