WELCOME MESSAGE: Jim Hart, RMHC INW Board Member Retired VP Operations, Jensen Distribution Services New year, new possibilities! At RMHC INW, we're gearing up for another year of supporting families facing medical challenges. As a board member and front desk volunteer, I've seen the impact of our work from both sides. Board meetings focus on the nuts and bolts: budgets, staffing, and logistics – keeping the doors open and the support flowing. But the real magic happens face-to-face at the front desk. That's where I see the staff connect with families, witness their emotions, and see the immediate relief when they walk through our doors. This year, we want to reach even more families, and that's where you come in. Whether you can spare a few hours a month to volunteer, adopt a room, make a meal, or simply spread the word, every single contribution makes a difference. Every action helps us write a new chapter of hope for families in need. Join us! Be like Jim! Write your volunteer story today!

BECOME A VOLUNTEER Your volunteer story starts here. It starts with a smile, a warm meal shared, and a comforting hand offered. It starts with taking one task off a parent's shoulders, whether it's restocking the pantry, organizing the playroom, or simply lending an ear.  Yes, I'd like to begin my volunteer story.

ADOPT A ROOM When you become an Adopt-A-Room partner, you give a sick child what they need most – their family close by their side in a safe, warm, comfortable home away from home – free of charge. Yes, I want to be an Adopt A Room Sponsor 

MAKE A MEAL The kitchen is the heart of any home, and our meal volunteers provide just the right touch with a hot fresh meal, cultivating a warm and comforting environment for those staying with us.  Yes, I'd like to be a Make A Meal volunteer

FAMILY FEATURE The Contreras Family

After 164 days of resilience and love, the Contreras family is finally getting to go home! Mom Hannah's high-risk pregnancy and early delivery were tough, but with your support at RMHC INW, she found strength and hope. Baby girl, who weighed just 1 pound 14 ounces at birth, is now a thriving 11-pound miracle. Your generosity made this journey possible.

ALUMNI FAMILY SPOTLIGHT The Jorgensen Family

Six weeks early, little Phayre faced a daunting start. But thanks to 32 nights of love and care in the NICU, Phayre and the Jorgensen's finally went home, a family complete. "When our Phayre needed the NICU, RMHC INW became our home away from home, " shared the Jorgensen family. Now, months later, their gratitude hasn't faded. Last month, the Jorgensen's returned - not as patients, but as heroes! Bearing holiday gifts for families facing similar challenges, they were spreading cheer and reminded us that hope always finds a way home. Thank you, Jorgensen's, for your generosity and for keeping the spirit of RMHC alive!
