03 Jan Share a Heart

Each year, the Share a Heart Campaign, presented by McDonald’s of the Ozarks, takes place throughout the month of February. Guests of McDonald’s and other local businesses are encouraged to adopt red, pink and gold paper hearts for $1, $5 and $20 (respectively). Our donors proudly sign their names to each heart and they’ve been displayed on the walls and windows of nearly 70 participating McDonald’s Restaurants throughout Southwest Missouri and Northern Arkansas.

Enter our Social Media Contest!
After making your donation, you’ll receive your red, pink or gold heart to take with you so you can enter to win a $250 MasterCard Gift Card from Great Southern Bank! Donors can enter the contest by completing four steps: Like the Ronald McDonald House of the Ozarks Facebook page (@RMH.Ozarks); Post a selfie with their signed heart; Tag our Facebook page in their post: (@RMH.Ozarks); Include the campaign hashtag: #forRMHOzarks.

This giveaway begins January 29, 2026 and four $250 gift cards will be awarded, one winner will be randomly selected each week of the campaign. Winners will be notified by RMH of the Ozarks.

Official Rules available here.

Every donated dollar goes directly to support Springfield’s two Ronald McDonald House programs. Annual operating expenses for the Houses exceed $900,000 – a need met by donations from people like you. Your Share a Heart donation makes all the difference! In 2025, we raised over $107,000 through the support provided by our partners at McDonald’s of the Ozarks, our sponsors and the giving Ozarks community. Thank you so much for your generosity.

This is our largest fundraiser for Springfield’s two Ronald McDonald House programs of the year, and it would not be possible without our volunteers, McDonald’s and all of our sponsors. Learn more about our generous sponsors by clicking on their logos.
