Hold a Wish List Drive
Support the families at PRMH through a wish list collection.
You can organize a drive with your school, workplace, or community organization. It is a great idea for a rewarding holiday service project, or just a wonderful way to give back throughout the year.
All items should be new for the health and safety of our families and volunteers. Cash contributions marked wish list may be sent in lieu of items. Please send a check made payable to The Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House. All donations, cash or merchandise, will be acknowledged. According to IRS regulations, the donor is responsible for placing a monetary value on donated merchandise.
To make an even greater impact, consider signing up at IGive.com and purchasing items from retailers who donate a percentage of sales back to the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House.
For questions regarding your wish list drive, or to schedule a drop off, please contact Doug Metcalfe at 215.387.8406.
