Sunny Start

Help Families Start Their Day

Mornings at Ronald McDonald House Missoula often begin early. Families may be heading to the hospital for rounds, appointments, procedures or another long day with their child.

Sunny Start volunteers ensure they have something easy and nourishing to grab on their way.

Seven days a week, volunteers provide breakfast options for our guest families, including fresh fruit, waffles, granola bars, juice boxes, bagels, yogurt, muffins and other convenient breakfast items.

Some families sit down and enjoy breakfast at the House. Others grab something on their way out the door. Either way, having breakfast available is one less thing they have to worry about.

Keep Sunny Start Stocked

Sunny Start is made possible through the generosity of our community.

You can help by donating breakfast items from our Sunny Start Wish List, making a financial gift to purchase breakfast supplies or by organizing a Sunny Start collection drive with your co-workers, classmates, team, family or community group.

Want to turn Sunny Start into a group or youth project? Explore our Donation Drives and Young Philanthropists pages for more ideas.
