National Cancer Survivor Month
This June, Starlight celebrates more than 270,000 childhood cancer survivors in the United States!
Every 60 seconds, a child is in need of medical care.
These kids are scared, lonely, and missing out on all of the things that make being a kid fun.
That’s where Starlight comes in.
We deliver happiness to seriously ill children and their families at more than 800 children’s hospitals and health care facilities in the US.
Our state-of-the-art programs like Starlight Virtual Reality, Starlight Hospital Wear, and Starlight Gaming entertain, distract, and inspire hospitalized kids.
Since 1982, Starlight has brought smiles to more than 17 million seriously ill children and their families.
