Children's Hospital, where families stay free of charge in a
home away from home environment.
CCS caters primarily to family from regional towns who are
forced to re-locate to Brisbane for often an indefinite time
while their child undergoes treatment at the Royal Brisbane
Children's Hospital. FUNDS
