Thanks a Million: Because Closer Means Everything
Every day, families face unimaginable challenges when their child is seriously ill. At Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) Ireland, we ensure that parents and siblings can stay close to their child when it matters most, providing a "home away from home" while their loved one receives critical medical care.
With the construction of the new Ronald McDonald House at the New Children’s Hospital well underway, we have an incredible opportunity to help more families than ever before. However, to complete and outfit the new House, we need to raise €1 million—and that’s where the Thanks a Million campaign comes in.
The Campaign
Thanks a Million is a nationwide fundraising initiative calling on businesses, communities, and individuals to be part of something truly impactful. Every single euro donated will bring us closer to our €1M goal, directly supporting:
• A bigger, better House – Expanding from 20 rooms to 52, ensuring no family is left without a place to stay.
• Keeping families close – Proximity to their child during treatment can significantly improve medical outcomes and emotional well-being.
• Easing financial and emotional stress – So parents can focus entirely on their child’s care without worrying about accommodation costs.

There are plenty of ways to make a difference and be part of Thanks a Million:
