The mission of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Texas (RMHC CTX) is to create, find and support programs that directly improve the health and well-being of children and families. RMHC CTX has supported thousands of families through four programs: Ronald McDonald House®, Ronald McDonald Family Rooms®, Healing Hearts and Happy Wheels Carts.

In 2016, we served 2,470 families by providing 10,488 room nights at the Ronald McDonald House and Ronald McDonald Family Rooms, saving them an estimated $2.4 million in food and lodging expenses.

R PROGRAMS, SERVICES, GOALS

RMHC CTX keep families close to the care their sick children need. Our programs ensure families have access to quality healthcare and can stay together during treatment without having to worry about the financial costs of lodging and food. The 30-guest suite Ronald McDonald House supports families that have children receiving treatment at any Austin-area hospital or medical facility and live at least 25 miles or more away from the House. Our “home-away-from-home” is open year-round, 24 hours a day and supports our families’ basic needs so they can focus on their children.

When a family walks into a Ronald McDonald Family Room, we want them to forget they’re in a hospital. RMHC CTX has five Ronald McDonald Family Rooms located within Central Texas hospitals to support families with children in the neonatal or pediatric intensive care units. Family Rooms are a refuge from the hospital environment and provide families an opportunity to rest while remaining close to their children. The nurturing spaces have living rooms, sleep rooms, kitchens with snacks and drinks, laundry facilities, bathrooms, and Internet access. There are no geographical restrictions to use the Family Room. Designed to stroll the hospital hallways, the Happy Wheels Carts provide complimentary juice, snacks, small toys and books to help families as they wait by their children’s bedside. The carts are manned by volunteers at three Bryan/College Station hospitals and two Austin hospitals. Families who tragically lose children are supported through our Healing Hearts program which provides burial assistance and bereavement support programs with licensed counselors in Austin and Brazos Valley.

R SNAPSHOTS R MISSION AND IMPACT STATEMENT

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Texas (BBBS) exists to help children succeed in life. We do this by pairing children ages 6-16 with caring adults who serve as mentors, advocates, resources and guides. Our proven model of one-to-one mentoring helps kids build the skills and capacities that lead to lifelong success.

R PROGRAMS, SERVICES, GOALS

BBBS creates and supports strong and caring relationships between adult volunteers (Bigs) and children (Littles) that change kids’ lives for the better, forever. Volunteers in the BBBS mentoring program commit to meeting with their Little 3-4 times per month for a minimum of one year.

BBBS serves hundreds of children in Travis, Williamson and Hays counties on any given day. Last year, more than 95% of the children served by BBBS intended to finish high school and 98% of them improved or maintained their grades. To achieve these outcomes, volunteers donated over 55,000 hours of their time and staff conducted 6,892 interactions with program participants. In 2016, BBBS also awarded $375,000 in new college scholarships to Littles as part of the agency’s Scholarship Program.

The impacts of our program are great, but the need is even greater. For every child we serve there is another on our waiting list longing to be matched with a caring mentor of their own. With your help, we can provide more children with the opportunities for success that they so richly deserve.
