A Gift of Your Time is One of the Most Rewarding Gifts of all.

Just take a look at the ways YOUR TIME can help:

Regular House Volunteer*

Time Commitment: 2 hour shifts, weekly or bi-monthly
Sign up for 2-hour shifts to perform House duties (cleaning, straighten-up, organize). These volunteers are crucial to the operation of the House.

Special Event Volunteer*

Time Commitment: Varies
Sign up to be called for various special events/projects that happen throughout the year. Examples: Sport A Shirt, Light A Luminary, golf tournaments etc.

Meal Groups

Time Commitment: Late afternoon/early evening for dinner; late morning for lunch
Great for groups! Meal groups plan a menu, shop in our pantry for staple items (may need to supplement with store-bought items) and come to the House to prepare your meal. Groups should have no more than 6 "chefs," and all participants must be 18 or older. 

Sign up here to Prepare a nightly meal at the House. 

Wish List Collections

Time Commitment: Varies
Having 21 bedrooms, the Ronald McDonald House of Eastern NC is in constant need of many household items. Collect any number of items and deliver to the House during regular hours. Great for schools groups, church groups, community organizations and businesses. Many groups encourage peers to bring Wish List items to upcoming meetings or host Wish List Drives to collect as many items as possible. 
For an updated list of needs, visit our Wish List page. 

*All House/Special Events Volunteers work directly under the supervision of the Community Outreach Director.
