About RMHC-OKC
Ronald McDonald House Charities® Oklahoma City keeps families with sick or injured children together and close to the medical care and resources they need, when they need it most.
Our programs offer comfort, support and helps alleviate some of the financial burden families experience during this time.
We believe that nothing should keep a family from being at their hospitalized child’s bedside. They should not have to worry about where they will get their next meal, or where they will sleep at night. It costs our organization $75.00 to house a family for one night, but our programs are provided at NO CHARGE to the families because of support from our community.
And that’s why we walk.
Walk for Kids is a fun, family-friendly event that raises essential funds and awareness for families served by RMHC-OKC. This year's event will be both in-person and virtual.
This year our in-person event will be held at Scissortail Park. And because our families come from across the state and beyond, we also host a virtual option. You can participate from your community - in your neighborhood or favorite local walking spot. You pick where, who you walk with, and when.
We encourage you to participate in whichever manner you can and help us #keepfamiliesclose.
