Ronald McDonald House Charities North Australia is an independent, not-for-profit organisation dedicated to providing vital programs for families with seriously ill children.


About Our Chapter

Ronald McDonald House Charities North Australia opened our, state-of-the-art Ronald McDonald House adjacent to Townsville Hospital in 2004, offering a safe place to stay for over 100 people a night. Through our accommodation and support services, we strive to keep families together when life gets turned upside down due to a child’s illness.

Our Programs are run by a tirelessly hard-working team of staff and volunteers, aided by the generous support of our donors, sponsors, corporate partners and the local community.

Our Mission

We improve the health and well-being of seriously ill children and their families through practical care programs.

Our Vision

All seriously ill children can live their healthiest live
