You can help families like Jamerikai's stay in their families fight.
When twins Jamerikai and Minjarra, were born at just 26 weeks premature, their parents Jedda and Billy’s world changed in an instant.
Tiny. Fragile. Fighting for every breath.
What followed was heartbreak, grief, courage and hope – for 432 days in hospital.
Jedda and Billy left home behind to stay by their son’s side.
But because of Ronald McDonald House ACT & South East NSW, they didn’t have to face it alone.
Today, more families need that same support.
Your tax-deductible gift today can help provide the same comfort, rest, hot meals and practical support to families just like Jamerikai’s & Minjarra’s.
Make a tax-deductible gift before June 30 to ensure that families stay at the heart of their child’s care.
And with your support, they never have to face it alone.
Strength, connection and hope in the middle of overwhelming uncertainty.
Today, more families across the ACT and South East NSW region are facing journeys just like this. Families travelling far from home. Families sleeping in hospital chairs. Families trying to stay strong while their child fights for their future.
And right now, they need your support.
Your gift will help to provide:
- A safe and comfortable place for a family to stay near the hospital
- Warm meals and everyday essentials during long hospital admissions
- Emotional support from caring volunteers and staff
- Spaces where siblings can rest, play and feel safe
- Practical support that removes barriers and eases financial pressure
Because we believe no family should have to choose between their child and having a place to stay.
