Supporting seriously ill children and their families through Ronald McDonald House Westmead and Family Room Nepean.
About us
The Ronald McDonald House Charities® Greater Western Sydney Chapter offers support and accommodation to seriously ill children receiving vital hospital treatment and their families at Ronald McDonald House Westmead, and a place of respite for families at Nepean Hospital through the Ronald McDonald Family Room Nepean. Ronald McDonald House Westmead is a 60-room "home away from home" for families from rural NSW, interstate or overseas while their child is treated at the Children's Hospital at Westmead. This can be a period of days, or weeks, at times even a year, and the staff and volunteers at the House ensure that families are given the support and homely environment they need to support their child's treatment and recovery. At the Ronald McDonald Family Room Nepean, families with children being treated in the NICU can take a break, have a cuppa, shower, or heat a meal up in the Family Room’s warm, homely environment seven days per week, 24 hours a day. The Greater Western Sydney Chapter also provides education services that allow children to remain connected to their schooling while they are spending long periods of time away from home and away from their classroom. This includes school holiday activities and and the “Homework Heroes" program run in the House’s dedicated Learning Centre, as well as tutoring support for students, and resources for teachers who have students in their classes with serious illnesses or injuries. The Greater Western Sydney Chapter is a not-for-profit organisation, and relies heavily on support from individual, community and corporate groups to maintain our operations and continue providing assistance to seriously ill children and their families. We welcome partnerships from the corporate sector and the community, and all donations are very gratefully accepted.

She's smiling he's smiling you're smiling we're all smiling! 😊😊😊 That's because Matthews Folbigg Lawyers are big on impacting their local community, and we're honoured they continue to support our mission. Our multi-year partnership ensures we can continue providing essential services like Meals from the Heart (pictured), taking away the burden of mealtime for all our in-house families, and sponsorship of Room 109, which 14 families have called home this year alone. Thank you, dear friends, for your trust in us and your commitment to the families we care for 💖 #Partnerships #Support #LocalCommunity

Head to your local McDonald's to donate to RMHC and help support families when they need it most. Let’s come together and make a difference!

Josie and Rosie headed home after 316 nights with us 🏠 There were many tears, hugs, and plans to visit each other as we bade them goodbye. One mum said, "They are family now." 💖 #KeepingFamiliesClose #PeerSupport #Community

From preparing meals to fundraising appeals, MJH Multi Residential Projects has been by our side for a decade and counting. They've reached an INCREDIBLE milestone in their support and we want to say thank you to our dear friends and everyone who's supported their many appeals through the years. Your generosity is inspirational, just like how GM Ben Mathers's passion inspired his own kids to run a market stall, with proceeds donated to the House 🥹 Every donation is an indelible mark made on so many lives and we're forever thankful 🌈 #Partnerships #MJHMulti #Support

We were glad to catch up with our Ray White Castle Hill friends when they supported our annual Race Day earlier this month 🤗 They’re in their fourth year of sponsoring a two-bedroom, which has become a place of comfort and solace for 20 families this year alone. One of these is little Jonah’s family of seven, who has been able to stay close to him since February as he undergoes treatment for high-risk neuroblastoma. Mum Desiree says, “Having this room has been an absolute blessing. RMHC GWS is not just somewhere to stay; it has become family.” 💞 Thank you, Ray White Castle Hill, for your ongoing support and trust in our mission. It’s making a life-changing impact on families like Desiree’s. #Partnerships
