The full LSH Credit Australia team joined forces and participated in a telethon-style fundraising event for Ronald McDonald House (“RMH”). RMH is a charity that supports sick kids and their families whilst they are receiving treatment at the nearby hospitals. When a child is diagnosed with a serious illness, it impacts the whole family and lives can be turned upside down. RMH provides a range of programmes to help families stay together and be close to the care they need. Families of such disadvantaged children are grappling with more than any of us can imagine. Keeping them close is the most important step in helping families cope through the stress, trauma and financial strain of caring for their child.
The day started with some impactful stories told from the families who have been with the programme, which provided the team motivation to work as hard as possible for their cause. For the event itself the LSH Credit teams reached out to our extensive networks with the aim of raising as much money as possible. We took to the challenge with a great buzz in the House. We are pleased to report that the team was involved in raising over A$50,000 for the children and their families.
