Our House
2004 Hope Blooms In Pasadena
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 is the fourth House of its kind operated by RMHCSC, which will provide a temporary home-away-from-home for up to seven families at a time whose children are undergoing treatment for serious illnesses at Huntington Memorial Hospital or other nearby medical facilities. Pictured with Ronald McDonald are (l to r) Dr. Stuart Siegel, president, RMHCSC; Taylor Newton-Cooper, daughter of current board of trustees vice president Dr. Steve Cooper; Marchelle L. Sellers, executive director, PRMH; and Jon Meyers, CEO, RMHCSC.
First in Pasadena
With each child that finds hope at one of our 19 area medical centers, a parent or caregiver comes along to give them the comfort and support they need. The Pasadena Ronald McDonald House, across from Huntington Memorial Hospital, provides families a place of warmth and comfort.

A room dedication at the Pasadena Ronald McDonald House is a very special and permanent way to recognize or memorialize someone special or come together as a family or group and help support the House and the families who call this “Home”. The dedication is permanent and will never expire. Funds raised are placed into a general operating fund and there is no future financial commitment after the initial dedication. With approval from staff, the room may be decorated as desired and a plaque will be ordered as suggested. We also host a special dedication reception just for your room upon request.
Please call Marchelle Sellers at 626-585-1588 ext. 101 or email with inquiries and for more information. Payment plans are available and as you can see, rooms are going fast!
