Together, we made
things better in 2022.
We provided our
families spaces to
laugh, and cry, and
provided much
needed hugs. We
delivered all of this
because of you.
For all of this and so
much more, we say
‘thank you.’
Our mission is simple: create compassionate environments and programs that provide families the
best chance of success in caring for their child with complex medical needs. We believe that when
a child is in time of greatest need, families and communities can come together to create
solutions, ultimately changing a child’s life forever.
FromTheCEO
We believe every child should have
access to the best healthcare with
their family by their side. For parents
with a seriously sick or injured child,
life can be very difficult. Their situation
leaves them emotionally drained and
financially stressed. Families often
must travel for treatment, and many
face a medical journey that can take
months or years. It is vital to ensure
these families have a place to stay
that’s comfortable, reliable, and most
of all, near the medical care their
child needs. Our 32 bedroom
“Home-away-from-home” is a wonderful
refuge for these families and
they are welcome to stay as long as
their children require critical care.
Access to quality health care and
family-centered care is at the heart of
our mission. Because of the support
of people like you, we will continue
to keep children and families close
to the care they need and deserve.
While we have many changes ahead,
our mission and the critical need for
Ronald McDonald House’s services
remain. Pediatric illness does not
stop for a holiday and neither does
our commitment to providing families
with a place to stay, nourishing meals,
and support services they need so
they can focus on their children.
We are always inspired by the
compassion and generosity of our
donors, volunteers, sponsors and
lowcountry community. Thank you
for helping to ease the hardship of
childhood illness.

FamilyStory
Jakia Shell knows all too well how hard life
can be with a sick child. When her third
daughter turned 2, she and her husband were
confronted with the news that Ashlyn had
Sickle Cell, an inherited blood disorder, and
would need a transplant. Before they knew
it, the entire family was in Charleston for over
two months. Fast forward four years, and
Ashlyn is a healthy 6 year old, trying to keep
up with her older siblings, while keeping an
eye out for the newest member of the family.
In Jakia’s words, “Thank you so much for
loving us, feeding us, playing with our kids,
and most of all, keeping families close!”
“Thank you so much for
loving us, feeding us, playing
with our kids, and most of all,
keeping families close!”
