Grants

Charity Grants HeaderWe have suspended our Charity Grants for the 2019 fiscal year.  If you have any questions, please contact Chief Executive Officer Amber Kaylor at 217-528-3314 X 145 or ak@rmhc-centralillinois.org. Thank you!

In addition to operating our "home away from home," Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Central Illinois (RMHCCI) also operates a Charity Grants program. This program provides grants to other not-for-profit organizations whose programs directly help children ages 0-21.

We focus on three distinct areas:

  • Civic and social services
  • Education and the arts
  • Health and medical research

Funding for the Charity Grants program is provided through a portion of the donations made to the collection canisters in McDonald's restaurants throughout central Illinois.

Counties in Illinois served through the RMHCCI grant program: Adams, Brown, Cass, Champaign, Christian, Coles, Dewitt, Douglas, Effingham, Ford, Fulton, Livingston, Logan, Macon, Mason, McLean, Menard, Morgan, Moultrie, Peoria, Piatt, Pike, Sangamon, Schuyler, Shelby, Stark, Tazewell, Vermilion, & Woodford.
