THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE, A HOME AWAY FROM HOME FOR FAMILIES OF SERIOUSLY ILL CHILDREN, AND BY CREATING AND SUPPORTING PROGRAMS THAT DIRECTLY IMPROVE THE LIVES OF CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES. PROGRAM SERVICE STATEMENT FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES OF THE CAPITAL REGION OWNS AND OPERATES THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE OF ALBANY. THE SIXTEEN BEDROOM FACILITY PROVIDES TEMPORARY HOUSING TO FAMILIES OF SERIOUSLY ILL CHILDREN WHO MUST LEAVE THEIR OWN COMMUNITY TO SEEK MEDICAL CARE FOR THEIR CHILD. THE HOUSE SERVES CHILDREN RECEIVING TREATMENT AT ALBANY MEDICAL CENTER, ST. PETER'S HOSPITAL, ST. MARGARET MARY'S AND OTHER MEDICAL FACILITIES. IN 2011 RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE OF ALBANY SERVED 382 FAMILIES: 96% CAME FROM NYS, WITH THE REMAINING FROM 11 OTHER STATES AS WELL AS 3 OTHER COUNTRIES. FAMILIES OF SERIOUSLY ILL CHILDREN AGE 18 AND UNDER ARE ELIGIBLE TO STAY AT RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE. WE ASK A NOMINAL DONATION OF $10 PER NIGHT PER FAMILY, WHICH ONLY PARTIALLY DEFRAYS THE COST OF OPERATING THE HOUSE AND NO FAMILY IS EVER TURNED AWAY DUE TO LACK OF FUNDS. ALMOST $150,000 OF IN-KIND DONATIONS OF GOODS AND SERVICES WERE RECEIVED IN 2011 COVERING PROGRAM EXPENSES THAT THE CHARITY WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE TO PAY. MAJOR IN-KIND DONATIONS INCLUDE FOOD, SOFT DRINKS, MILK, CLEANING SUPPLIES AND HOUSEHOLD PAPER GOODS. A GROUP OF OVER 350 VOLUNTEERS HELP SUPPORT THE STAFF, BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND GUESTS OF RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE BY PROVIDING OFFICE ASSISTANCE, LIGHT HOUSEKEEPING, MEAL PREPARATION FOR FAMILIES, GARDENING AND MAINTENANCE. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES IDENTIFIED A NEED FOR PROGRAM EXPANSION BY OPENING A RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE FAMILY ROOM IN THE PEDIATRIC INTENSIVE CARE UNIT IN ALBANY MEDICAL CENTER HOSPITAL, WHICH OPENED IN 2001. THIS SERVES BOTH LOCAL AND DISTANT FAMILIES WHO HAVE A CHILD WITH CRITICAL MEDICAL PROBLEMS. THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE FAMILY ROOM PROVIDES A FULLY FURNISHED HOME LIKE ATMOSPHERE WITH LIVING ROOM, KITCHENETTE AND TWO SLEEPING ROOMS. PROGRAM SERVICE STATEMENT FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES MISSION IS TO PROVIDE COMFORT, SUPPORT AND RESPITE FOR FAMILIES OF SERIOUSLY ILL CHILDREN IN A COMPASSIONATE AND HOME-LIKE ENVIRONMENT THROUGH ITS CORNERSTONE PROGRAM, THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE OF ALBANY, BUT CAN ONLY HELP SIXTEEN FAMILIES AT ONE TIME. TO MEET THE BROADER MISSION, RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES PROVIDES GRANTS IN THE COMMUNITY THAT ENHANCE THE LIVES OF CHILDREN. MONEY USED FOR GRANT MAKING COMES FROM SPECIAL PROMOTIONS HELD BY OUR LOCAL MCDONALD'S FRANCHISES, SPECIAL DESIGNATED FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES AND A MATCHING GRANT ACCOUNT FUNDED BY THE NATIONAL CHAPTER OF RMHC IN OAK BROOK. A LISTING OF 2011 IS SHOWN ON SCHEDULE I. PROGRAM SERVICE STATEMENT FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4C THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES OF THE CAPITAL REGION'S RONALD MCDONALD CARE MOBILE PROGRAM IS OPERATED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ST. PETER'S HOSPITAL. THE CARE MOBILE, A 40-FOOT LONG, 8-FOOT WIDE, STATE-OF-THE-ART VEHICLE, IS BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR DELIVERING COMPREHENSIVE PEDIATRIC ORAL HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO CHILDREN AT THEIR SCHOOL. THE VEHICLE INCLUDES TWO PATIENT EXAMINATION ROOMS, A LABORATORY AND RECEPTION AND MEDICAL RECORDS AREAS. STAFFED WITH DENTISTS AND ORAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS FROM ST. PETER'S HOSPITAL, THE RONALD MCDONALD CARE MOBILE PROVIDES COST-EFFECTIVE, HIGH-QUALITY DENTAL AND HEALTH EDUCATION SERVICES TO UNDERSERVED CHILDREN IN ALBANY. SOCIAL WORKERS ALSO HELP ELIGIBLE FAMILIES ENROLL IN STATE AND FEDERALLY ASSISTED HEALTH INSURANCE INITIATIVES SUCH AS "HEALTHY KIDS NEW YORK." EACH YEAR, NEARLY 3,000 CHILDREN ARE SCREENED BY THE CARE MOBILE PROGRAM. OVER 1,000 CHILDREN RECEIVE COMPREHENSIVE CARE RANGING FROM CLEANINGS AND SEALANTS TO EXTRACTIONS AND ROOT CANALS. FACTS ABOUT WHY PROVIDING ACCESS TO DENTAL CARE IS SO VITAL: MORE THAN 51 MILLION HOURS OF SCHOOLING ARE LOST ANNUALLY DUE TO THE LACK OF DENTAL CARE AMONG AMERICAN CHILDREN. TOOTH DECAY IS THE MOST COMMON CHRONIC CHILDHOOD DISEASE TODAY, FIVE TIMES MORE COMMON THAN ASTHMA. THE CARE MOBILE IS ONE OF THE WAYS RMHC FULFILLS OUR MISSION TO PROMOTE THE HEALTH, DEVELOPMENT AND WELL BEING OF CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES.
