Ronald McDonald House Charities of St. Louis established the Cornerstone Society in 2012 to recognize our most generous donors.
In the thirteen years since its inception, Cornerstone Society members have donated over $24 million to provide comfort, care and a home-away-fromhome for seriously ill children and their families.
We are proud to share that the society has grown from 339 to over 560 members, truly showcasing the commitment from our friends and neighbors.
Thank you to the following individuals, corporations, organizations and foundations that represent our 2024 Cornerstone Society members, who made outright gifts of $1,000 or more to support our operations last year.
Our friends. Our partners. Our foundation.
