Time spent in the hospital can be stressful for the entire family, especially when unable to visit with Covid restrictions. We are able to alleviate a lot of the burden by providing a supportive and comfortable place at no cost for families with sick or injured children at EIRMC to enjoy prepared meals, relax, shower, do some laundry or stay the night. We would like to have some gifts to give the family members, especially during the holidays when their time to shop is limited and crowds are heavy in the stores.
Please consider shopping for patients, parents and their other children at home. We will invite the parents that visit the Family Room to 'shop' from our collection.

Description
Since 1988, the family of any hospitalized or ill child receiving treatment at a Boise medical facility has found a home away from home at the Idaho Ronald McDonald House. Families come from across Idaho, Eastern Oregon, Northern Nevada and beyond. The House serves hundreds of families each year that face many challenges with their sick children.
Providing these families with a safe, supportive, welcoming place to stay is the reason the Ronald McDonald House exists. The staff, volunteers and Board of Directors help to meet basic needs and provide more than just the necessities. With the help of all the supporters of the House, families are provided shelter, food, support, and care.
