Starlight Children’s Foundation Canada is dedicated to brightening the lives of seriously ill children and their families across the country. We are the only charity in Canada that helps seriously ill children in and out-of-hospital from diagnosis throughout the course of their care journey.
Living with a serious illness can cause enormous strain in the lives of children and their families. The pain, fear and isolation that sick children feel dominates their lives and they often miss out on the everyday experiences that healthy children take for granted. Starlight Canada provides programs that give seriously ill children the opportunity to laugh, play and be kids again.
We are the Canadian partner of an international organization with counterparts in the United States, The United Kingdom and Australia. Together we have served over 60 million seriously ill children and their families for over 30 years.
