Our Meals from the Heart Program is a great initiative which provides families with delicious nutritious meals and a night off from preparing dinner. Supporting families of seriously ill children at Ronald McDonald House is an amazing and unforgettable team-building experience that demonstrates your organisation’s commitment to corporate social responsibility, encourages staff engagement and boosts team morale.
Alex from UCC Coffee Australia Limited said:
We were so fortunate to help families in need whilst also bonding as a team. The sense of pride we had was overwhelming and taking the time out of our busy schedules was not only rewarding but brought us closer together as a team.

We are a not-for-profit organisation that relies solely on donations and community support. As financial support is vital for us to continue to provide this support, a donation is required to secure your spot in our Corporate Group Volunteering Program.
Your generous donation helps cover the cost of running this program; including equipment upkeep, volunteer training, staffing, and of course keeping our doors open to more families than ever before.
Our main priority is to always keep our families and yourselves safe and healthy. This means we must ensure we follow some guidelines as we welcome guests to our houses.
