Subaru Canada, together with the Subaru Series Race Organizers are pleased to announce Ronald McDonald House Charities Canada as the official charity of the Subaru Triathlon Series.

Ronald McDonald Houses are community houses, and each House is independently operated and relies on active contributions and support from individual donors, corporations and charitable groups in their communities. Support from events like the Subaru Triathlon Series will help Ronald McDonald Houses provide more than 10,000 families of seriously ill children with a safe and comfortable place to stay that is just steps from the hospital where their child is undergoing medical treatment.

"We are so thrilled to have the support of the Subaru family as part of the Subaru Triathalon Series," said Cathy Loblaw, President and CEO of Ronald McDonald House Charities. "Subaru has been a longstanding partner to our Houses in helping sick children heal with their families, and it is through support of our amazing partners like Subaru that we hope to serve 20,000 families in 2014."

In the next few months the Subaru Triathlon Series will be building and unveiling a program that will allow athletes to "make their race count". All athletes and partners will have the ability to make a one-time contribution or create their own personalized fundraising page where they will be able to collect donations on-line. Athletes will have the ability to choose to race on behalf of the House of their choice. The main focus will be the 4 Ronald McDonald Houses across Ontario (Hamilton, London, Toronto or Ottawa) but donations across Canada will be accepted. The more the athlete raises the greater the benefits for all. We will be looking to build packages where the highest earners will win valuable triathlon gear and race entries. Stay tuned for more information in the weeks to come. To learn more about fundraising opportunities please contact janet.fraser@ironman.com

If you or someone you know has been touched by a personal experience about the Ronald McDonald House, we would also love to hear from you. Tell us your story.
