Ronald McDonald House Charity

MYOB Exo was able to cut down on manual labour and paperwork with automation and EDI, allowing all 13-chapter houses within RMHC to have stable and efficient communication.

Who are RMHC?

Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) is a worldwide recognised charity that helps families physically, economically, and emotionally along their child’s healthcare journey. They offer houses, rooms, retreats and learning programs for the families of seriously ill children who need hospital care away from their homes. RMHC currently has 13 house chapters across Australia that support these families in need with facilities and thoughtful initiatives.

What catalysed the switch to MYOB Exo?

Although RMHC is one organisation, each chapter house runs individual fundraising support programs and maintains their own sets of accounts. As the charity grew, there was an increasing concern regarding the efficiency and precision of their work – especially at a national, organisational level. The process was messy, and time-consuming. It would take up to 8 weeks to consolidate their data into one report. RHMC looked to the MYOB Exo experts at Kilimanjaro Consulting for a solution. We recommended making the transition to MYOB Exo.
