Your tax-deductible donation of any amount will fund (1) the purchase of iPads preloaded with FamZoom (2) protection and support for these devices.

We hope our VIDEO demonstrated the magic of FamZoom. When family members can't be at their child's bedside 24/7, they can still stay connected by "FamZooming" remotely. The more money we raise, the more iPads will be made available.

Imagine a child in a hospital bed and a loved one in a Ronald McDonald House doodling together on a picture of Grandpa... or reading a bedtime story together... or working on actual math homework together... or putting a jigsaw puzzle together---all in real time! Or imagine Suzie "FamZooming" with a new friend she made in the hospital room down the hall! Remember: Whatever is done on one device displays instantly on the other device---all while talking live!

Your donation will offer this engagement platform to CHILDREN IN HOSPITALS AND THEIR LOVED ONES IN RONALD MCDONALD HOUSES THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. The benefits of maintaining family connectivity during treatment and healing are widely known and well documented.

FamZoom was invented by two award-winning toy inventors who wanted something beyond Skype to engage with their grandkids on both coasts. You can see why its tagline is "connecting and more like never before!"

The FamZoom virtual family room is perfect for Ronald McDonald families. Even if a loved one or fellow patient isn't available at a given time, there's no need to ever postpone the fun because each FamZoom activity can also be enjoyed "solo!"

If you've read this far, you're good. If you've decided to donate, you're even better. If you can get friends to follow your lead, you're the best. Thank you for anything you can do to help!
