Ronald McDonald House Charities® New Zealand supports families when their child is in hospital away from home. Last year we hosted 3,697 families in our 131 rooms across the country while their child was undergoing treatment. Our Ronald McDonald House® and Ronald McDonald Family Room® programmes take care of the practical things in life - providing accommodation, nutritious meals and a friendly supportive environment - so families can focus on their child staying in hospital away from home. “It has helped my family immensely financially – but most importantly, emotionally – to be able to stay together during such a time. It was our home-away-from-home” said House Mum Megan. It costs $171 to house a family with one night of accommodation near their child’s hospital and with your generosity we can help to keep families in your community together. Ronald McDonald House Charities® New Zealand gives families with a hospitalised child what they need most – each other.
