Become a Volunteer

Volunteers at Ronald McDonald House Charities of San Diego step up to provide a network of care for guests by offering the comforts of home – hospitality, meals, activities, everyday services, and special attention. When you volunteer here, you make an overwhelming situation more manageable for families with hospitalized children.

  • Volunteers must complete all paperwork and clear a background check prior to starting their service.
  • Volunteers make a commitment to help one shift or multiple shifts per week for a duration of six months.
  • Volunteers must sign in and out during each shift for record keeping and security purposes.
  • Volunteers need to wear appropriate, modest, clean clothing along with comfortable closed-toe shoes.

Note: We do not offer opportunities to fulfill court-ordered community service.
