Baking a Difference
Small treat. Big impact.
Small treat. Big impact.
Parents and carers of ill and injured children often don’t have the time, funds or energy to cook baked treats and snacks like they normally would, especially after a long and emotional day at the hospital.
You’re invited to step into our kitchen to prepare comforting, freshly-baked snacks and treats.
As part of this experience, you will be preparing food for up to 130 people. This requires a minimum of 5 people and a maximum of 10 people. All participants must be over 18 years old.
The Baking a Difference Program works across our Herston and South Brisbane Houses:
Ronald McDonald House Herston – every Thursday*
Ronald McDonald House South Brisbane – every Friday*
*This service is dependent on the availability of external groups and is not guaranteed on a weekly basis
$500 plus GST
This financial contribution helps cover the cost of your volunteering experience. It includes all the ingredients required to provide snacks for over 130 people, utensils and RMHC SEQ employees, who will assist you in the preparation and serving of food and take you on a tour of the House.
You will receive an email with an invoice within 5- 7 days after completing the booking form.
9:00am – Arrive, Sign In, House Tour & Induction
9:30am – Start Cooking
12:30pm – Pack Food into Containers & Clean Up
1:00pm – Book your next Bake Off, Team Photo & Sign Out
You will bake favourites such as scones, muffins, brownies, caramel slice and more!
As part of this experience:
Choose which house you would like your team to cook at and click the button ‘Enquire to book’ then complete the form. One of team members will be in touch with you to complete the booking.
We will provide you with aprons and hair nets on the day. Dress code is flat closed in shoes, shirts with sleeves. Please limit the jewellery your wear by removing all watches, bracelets, dangly earing and loose rings.

There is limited carparking at both locations. However, up to 2 carparks are available on request if you choose to carpool. Both locations are right next to the busway, and you can plan your trip using TransLink. In addition, you can book a Taxi or Rideshare.
