Ronald McDonald House North Australia is proud to be a charity partner of the Airlie Beach Marathon, helping runners make every kilometre count for seriously ill children and their families.

We support families across North Australia through accommodation, hospital support programs, education assistance, and family retreats- all designed to keep families close during a child’s medical journey.

Programs include:

• Accommodation for families with children receiving treatment in Townsville 
• A Family Room inside the Children’s Ward at Mackay Base Hospital and Townsville University Hospital 
• A Family Retreat in Palm Cove 
• Tutoring support for children recovering from serious illness or injury 
• Hospitality Carts supporting families at Mount Isa Hospital, Mackay Base Hospital and Townsville University Hospital 

We rely on community support, with every dollar raised staying local to help local families when they need it most.
