The company will also support Ronald McDonald House through a $600,000 grant and colleague volunteer events through 2027
WOONSOCKET, R.I., December 8, 2025 - CVS Health® (NYSE: CVS) is working with Ronald McDonald House® Global to support families during their children's medical journeys this holiday season. On December 3, the company collaborated with Philadelphia home decor creator Meghan Gallagher to decorate the first-ever Ronald McDonald House in Philadelphia with seasonal products from Joyward™, a new collection of decor, gifts and more just introduced by CVS Health.
Common areas were decked out with Joyward's cozy home accents and festive pieces, including soft throws and patterned pillows, colorful nutcrackers, ceramic trees and more, to help bring cheer to Ronald McDonald House families. CVS Health also provided curated care packages of Well Market™ snacks and personal care essentials. To close the evening, families came together to create ornaments and decorate the floor-to-ceiling dining room windows alongside CVS Health and Ronald McDonald House representatives.
"We believe that health extends beyond clinical care - it's about supporting families during life's most challenging moments," said Jenny McColloch, VP, Community Impact and Chief Sustainability Officer, CVS Health. "Our work with Ronald McDonald House reflects that commitment. By combining our resources with Ronald McDonald House's incredible work, we're helping families stay close to their children's medical care, while creating opportunities for our colleagues to make a meaningful impact in their communities. Together, we're building healthier, stronger futures - one family at a time."
The Philadelphia event is part of a longer-term collaboration between CVS Health and Ronald McDonald House Global. Through a $600,000 grant, CVS Health colleagues across 10 regions will be able to participate in organized volunteer activities that focus on supporting Ronald McDonald House families, such as preparing meals and hosting activity nights. Colleagues nationwide will also have the opportunity to create their own volunteer events - empowering them to help make an impact in their own communities and advancing the two organizations' shared commitment to supporting better health outcomes.
"Ronald McDonald House provides nearly 90 percent of all pediatric-only temporary housing for families in the United States, according to research from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. However, we estimate that we are only meeting 55 percent of current demand for our services in the U.S.," said Katie Fitzgerald, President and Chief Executive Officer at Ronald McDonald House Global. "CVS Health will help Ronald McDonald House improve health outcomes by enabling more families to stay together and be involved in their child's care."
