Your impact means more than a place to sleep for families
.
Last year RMHC Sydney supported over 962 family stays at our House in Randwick, over 1,500 families used our three Family Rooms across NSW and we served over 9,000 meals.
By taking up the Paws for Sick Kids challenge you are helping us ensure we can continue providing vital support services and keep families together as their child takes on the fight of their life.
On average it costs RMHC Sydney $160 per night to support each family staying at the House. In the traditional sense of the word, a night would simply refer to a roof over someone's head for the night, but at RMHC Sydney, a night means so much more to our families.
A night for our families means:
- They have a network of families, staff and volunteers in the House that understand what they are going through
- A quick 5-minute walk to the hospital when you need it
- A kitchen full of food and home-made meals cooked for them 3 times per week
- Access to our Family Rooms when staying on ward
- Access to in-house education support by qualified teachers and 40 hours of free tuition when the patient returns home
- It’s free to families staying at RMHC Sydney so they can focus on their sick child
