Each month we evaluate what we have in stock and what we need most to create our wish list. Please note all donations must be new and unused due to infectious disease policies. All food donations must be prepared in our kitchen or commercial kitchens only – we are unable to accept food and baked goods that are prepared in home kitchens.

We are welcoming in-kind donations from the community, such as Wish List items, at this time. However, we ask that the community place their donations in the receptacle provided outside of our facility and follow the instructions list. Our staff will bring these items into the House and take safety measures before placing them into the common areas for families to use. Thank you for understanding as we take extra precautions with the Coronavirus. 

Donations may be dropped off at the Ronald McDonald House in Hershey at 745 W. Governor Road anytime 9:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m., 7 days a week.

You can also purchase your donations through our Amazon Wish List and have donations directly sent to the House.

We are unable to accept used/outdated items, canned goods, baby food and formula, medical supplies, tube feeding formula and most other items that are not on our Wish List. 

Collect Items from Our Wish List / Host A Wish List Drive

We are in constant need of supplies for the families that stay at the Ronald McDonald House and visit our Ronald McDonald Family Room, Kiosk Center and Hospitality Cart. Small comforts like individually wrapped snacks, juice boxes and travel size toiletries make a difference when a family is traveling back and forth to the hospital.

*Our most significant request on our Wish List continues to be Gift Cards that allow us to purchase items as needed, limiting storage and shelf life issues. Examples include: Sam’s Club, Giant, Karns, Sheetz Gas Cards, etc.
