About Starlight Children's Foundation
Two Decades of Children's Laughter
Since being formed as an Australian children’s charity in 1988, Starlight has brightened the lives of seriously ill and
hospitalised children, and their families, throughout Australia.
Starlight programs are delivered both in and out of hospital, providing positive distraction to children in their time of need.
About Starlight
Living with illness or injury can cause enormous strain in the
lives of children and their families. The pain, loneliness and
isolation that sick children feel dominates their lives, and
they often miss out on normal experiences that healthy children
take for granted.
Physical recovery is only part of the solution. Starlight delivers innovative programs designed to make children happy and lift their spirits when they need it most. Starlight brings fun and laughter to children no matter what their illness or where they live.
