Community
“We have an obligation to give something back.”
Ray Kroc said it, and more than 50 years later it still shapes how the Burrell family shows up in the towns where we live and work.

Strengthening communities
23 Restaurants. 1 Community Commitment.
Across our 23 restaurants, we’re proud to support the people, organizations, schools, teams, and community groups that make our communities stronger. From youth programs and local events to schools, nonprofits, and community initiatives, our commitment goes far beyond our restaurants. We’re proud to be part of the communities we serve.
Our priorities
How we give back.
Ronald McDonald House Charities®
As the founding mission partner, McDonald's has helped RMHC provide a global network of over 260 chapters in 65 countries — keeping families near the care their child needs. We're passionate supporters of the Nashville Ronald McDonald House, a home away from home for many Southern Kentucky families.
Food Waste & Donation
Good food and precious resources should never go to waste. We work with our supply chain and restaurants to make sure our food serves its purpose, donating meals and ingredients to feed families in need.
Community Support & Crisis Response
Because most restaurants are run by independent franchisees, we have deep roots in our communities — whether that's a meal, volunteering in the neighborhood, or helping in a time of need.
