Ronald McDonald House Corpus Christi address relocated to 5525 Leopard St.

Ronald McDonald House Charities South Texas has temporarily relocated to 5525 Leopard St. in Corpus Christi while construction begins on our new Ronald McDonald House. At our Interim Location, we continue to provide overnight stays for families who need to be close to their child’s care.

While our address has temporarily changed, our mission remains the same. We continue providing comfort, care, and support for families with hospitalized children, ensuring they have a place to stay close to the medical care their child. This move is not a pause in our mission; it is progress. It brings us one step closer to opening a new, expanded House that will serve even more families for generations to come.

We are building more than a House—we’re building hope, togetherness, and healing for South Texas families.

Limited healthcare options across South Texas mean more children are being sent to Corpus Christi for lifesaving treatment. Our House is full—and too often, we have to turn families away. Long-term stays reduce available rooms, while demand from hospital partners keeps growing. To meet this urgent need, we are expanding by 80%, from 25 rooms to 45 rooms, so every family can stay close to their child. To learn more about our expansion campaign, visit: BuildingWithLove.org
