Thank you!

Together, we brought happiness to sick kids in 2023: watch how your support created countless smiles.

Wish Week fun for everyone, all thanks to YOU!

You gave lasting happy memories to Wish Week Families.

In 2023, we had not one but TWO amazing Wish Weeks on the Gold Coast, all thanks to your support.

Each Wish Week trip was made up of seven big days of activities where Starlight families came together for the excitement and fun of Australia's favourite theme parks.

During the week, our families also gave surfing a go and enjoyed a luxury picnic in the park. Captain Starlight even landed on the Gold Coast to run fun group games and activities for kids during the Welcome and Final Night Dinners!

A heartwarming moment was shared when a parent revealed their child, who regularly experiences seizures, did not have any during Wish Week.

Thanks to your kind support, everyone had a ball while getting to know other families facing similar challenges. For many families, they were able to enjoy their first holiday away together since their child's diagnosis.
