Ronald McDonald House Dinner

March 17, 2016 By Maggi Barnard

On the 9th April the Men of League Foundations and Ronald McDonald House Orange (RMHO) Sportsman’s dinner will be held in Orange. Since opening last April, RMHO has had 77 families stay, including 10 families from Parkes. The sportsman’s dinner promises to be a fabulous evening where guests can mingle with Bob McCarthy, former international rugby league icon, Mike Cleary a dual code international, John Peard and Stuart Raper a former NRL Player.

RMHO is the first house to support families that are affected by child and adolescent mental health. Ronald McDonald House Orange is a ‘home away from home’ for many families of a child with a serious illness, providing a safe and comfortable environment where the whole family can stay together for the duration of their child’s treatment. With your support, the house will continue to be a place where families can be together and have a soft place to land when they need it most during a traumatic time in their lives. If you would like to attend the dinner at the Orange Ex-Services Club on 9th April at 7pm and rub shoulders with rugby elite, please call 6362 2666. Tickets are $75pp and include dinner and entertainment.
