What's a Virtual Gift?

When you purchase a virtual gift from this site, you are making a very real donation, through the concept of a 'virtual gift'.

The virtual gifts featured here represent all of the little things, both tangible and intangible, that are needed to make a house truly a home, from a cup of tea to a push on a swing. Your support, through the purchase of these virtual gifts will help us ensure that kids can be kids and that we can give their parents one less thing to worry about.

Your donation will ensure Ronald McDonald House Newfoundland and Labrador can provide a warm, comfortable, home-away-from-home for sick children and their families. Every family's needs are different. That’s why your donation here will be pooled into a fund dedicated to the ongoing operational costs of the House, to ensure the flexibility to give every family of the House what they need.

While your donation of a ‘cup of tea’ may not be physically traceable back to any one cup of tea, rest assured that there will be many cups of tea served up in the kitchen of Ronald McDonald House, all made possibly by your generosity.

We encourage you to browse the site, personalize your donation and experience The House That Love Built.

Share the experience with friends and family members by buying them a gift card, allowing them to visit the site themselves and customize their donation.

If you'd prefer to make a straight cash donation, you can do that here.

And of course, some of the greatest gifts you can give cost no money at all - give the gift of time by volunteering at Ronald McDonald House.
