The Home Sweet Home Baking Program is a wonderful way to help make our House and Family Room feel like home for families by ensuring that comforting treats are on hand for them to share together.

Get together with friends, family, or co-workers to prepare baked goodies for RMHC Manitoba families. We provide the kitchen and ingredient staples, while you provide the baking skills and any other ingredients you may need. Whether a one-time event or monthly, we invite you to come to Ronald McDonald House to share your baking skills and help support our meal programming.
