Each year, glowing candles line the streets of neighborhoods across the Triangle and beyond.
Now in its 33rd year, the Light a Luminary project brings together 80+ local communities in support of families with critically ill children staying at Ronald McDonald House who cannot be home for the holidays.
Help Us Reach Our Goal!
Last year, thanks to your generosity, our neighborhood donated $16,250. This year, we’re increasing our goal to make an even greater impact.
Our 2026 goal is $17,000. Your support will provide housing, hot meals, and HOPE to families with seriously ill children in our community.

Why it matters.
1. Keeping families close to sick children.
Ronald McDonald House welcomes families so they can be near a sick child in the hospital. Families are never charged for lodging, meals, or any support service.
2. Expanding access.
Your generous donation helps offset costs for neighbors who may not be able to contribute, ensuring as many streets as possible participate.
3. Tax deductibility.
All donations are tax-deductible and directly benefit the families of seriously ill children in the Triangle.
