Volunteering 

The stars behind our smiles

Our volunteers are our most valuable assets in making the dreams of Starlight and our children a reality. People all over Australia donate their time and effort to bring magic to the lives of seriously ill children and their families.

Starlight volunteers make positive changes in the lives of many people - including themselves. The sense of worth a volunteer receives from helping a sick child smile for the first time in days is invaluable.
