RMHC Mom, Jessica Rogozinski
Jessica and her two children, Felix and Dottie, have been an RMHC Bay Area family for many years. They travel from Fresno to our Stanford House while Felix receives treatment at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital.
Jessica uses exercise, trail running, and time outside to help her cope with the stress of caring for a sick child and their younger sibling. We’re so excited to have Jessica running the Half Marathon at the Oakland Running Fest, and we hope you’ll join her on her journey.
Sponsor Jessica TodayWe’re there for sick kids and their families, whether they travel many hours or a few neighborhoods away to access critical care. When the safety and comfort of home are out of reach and worry and stress weigh heavy, we believe what to eat, where to sleep and who to turn to for support are extra burdens no family should have to face.
Our Feed the Love ProgramOur mission is simple: be there for sick kids and their families, providing comfort and support when and where they need it most. Our objectives are clear: ease the emotional and financial burden families endure. Join us as we expand our housing, meal, and family support services—because every sick child deserves the care they need, surrounded by family and a community they can count on.
