Ronald McDonald House Hong Kong was established in 1996. It is the first in Asia and one of the core projects of Ronald McDonald House Hong Kong Charities. The house can accommodate sick children and their families who are receiving treatment in the hospital. In addition to 23 family rooms, Ronald McDonald House Hong Kong also has a kitchen, library, study room, play area, dining room, organic farming garden and an isolation suite specially designed for bone marrow transplant patients. It is well-equipped and has a beautiful environment, so that sick children and their families can face difficulties with peace of mind. This temporary home is not only a temporary place to live, but also a "home" full of love and care.

 

 

 

Accompanied by representatives from Ronald McDonald House, Dr. Tong and Mr. Sin visited the facilities to learn about its operation and future development, and discussed opportunities for collaboration between the two sides.
