What a great idea!

Thank you for taking a moment and looking at our fundraising page and learning more about the initiatives of Starlight Foundation.

I can’t applaud The Starlight Foundation high enough, they bring smiles to sick & terminally ill children. When you’re a child, all you should be doing is smiling. So go on, dig deep and do a feel good thing for the day. Make a donation instead of that walk to the vending machine this afternoon ;-)

Star Chef 2012 for Starlight Children's Foundation

The Starlight Children’s Foundation transforms the experience of hospitalisation and treatment for seriously ill children and their families- Starlight is the only children’s charity with a permanent , physical presence in very major paediatric hospital in the country.

Every minute of every day a child is admitted to hospital in Australia. For thousands of these children what happens next is the diagnosis of a serious or chronic illness that changes their life, and the lives of their families, forever.

This is where Starlight steps in - delivering a range of innovative programs, built on the World Health Organisation’s social model of health, to support the well-being and resilience of these seriously ill children and their families.

Starlight programs are integral to the total care of seriously ill children - while the health professionals focus on treating the illness, Starlight is there to lift the spirits of the child - giving them the opportunity to laugh and play and be a child again.
