The volunteers at the Ronald McDonald House Charities Charlottesville are vital members of our family, our community and our home. We welcome volunteers from every walk of life – students, families, companies, corporations, and church groups to name a few – and provide a flexible schedule with no minimum time requirements. We are always looking for energetic volunteers and we welcome creative ideas.
