Starting as a single race in New York in 2009, RBC Race for the Kids has grown into a series of 25+ family fun races that take place around the world. More than 360,000 participants have raised over $82 million CAD for youth charities across the globe.   RBC Capital Markets has supported Ronald McDonald House Charities Sydney for over 6 years, through events such as RBC Race for the Kids, RBC Charity Day for the Kids, and by supporting sponsoring several events including Walk Me Home the Home for Dinner program.  During this time, they have raised close to $1 million (approximately 6,250 nights) for sick kids and their families.
