Our Relationship with McDonald’s

We are often asked about our relationship with McDonald’s. The McDonald’s system, including local owner/operators, suppliers, employees, and customers provide valuable annual support for our programs. Their support extends from monetary contributions to volunteerism to board participation. 

Proceeds from donations made at local McDonald’s restaurants and support from the McDonald’s system make up less than 6% of our annual revenue, and the remainder of our multi-million-dollar budget is generated through the generosity of individuals, corporations, and foundations.
