2004 Hope Blooms in Pasadena

The Pasadena Ronald McDonald House opened on February 14, 2004 and is the 150th Ronald McDonald House in the United States.

Ronald McDonald led the festivities during a special Valentine's Day celebration where Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Southern California (RMHCSC) officially introduced the Pasadena Ronald McDonald House (PRMH). PRMH provides a temporary "home away from home" for up to eight families at a time, whose children are undergoing treatment for serious illnesses at Huntington Memorial Hospital or other nearby medical facilities. It is the fourth house of its kind operated by RMHCSC.
