Donate to Deliver Starlight Programs

Your donation, big or small, can make a difference in the lives of kids and families!

Starlight’s programs are carefully crafted to address the unique needs of children in hospitals. These programs are designed to bring kids comfort, play and ultimately, a sense of happiness, because we believe healing begins with happiness™.

$25 can help fund Starlight Toys and $40 delivers one Starlight Hospital Gown. Read more about our programs, including the Starlight Nintendo Switch Gaming Station and Starlight Hero Wagon, and how they positively impact pediatric patients here.

Spread the Word About Starlight's Mission

Spreading the word can make a big difference. Whether it’s a quick conversation or a social media post to share, you can help more people discover Starlight and get involved.

Encourage your friends and family to follow Starlight on social and share stories of hospitals and families who are positively impacted!

Every new supporter can help bring more happiness to kids!

If you know a family or child navigating the challenges of illness, you can tell them about the Starlight Families program. Free to join, the Families program bridges the gap between a child’s hospital journey and at-home recovery. Starlight Families receive digital resources and early access to Starlight programs.
