Give your child a reason to smile

Living with illness or injury can cause enormous strain in the lives of children and their families. The pain that sick children feel dominates their lives, and they often miss out on normal experiences that healthy children take for granted.

Starlight delivers programs designed to make children and young people happy, lifting their spirits when they need it most.
