Starlight Children's Foundation
Since 1988, the Starlight Children's Foundation has brightened the lives of seriously ill and hospitalised children, and their families, by delivering innovative programs that restore the fun, laughter and joy that serious illness takes away. Starlight's programs include Starlight Express Rooms, Starlight Fun Centres, Starlight's Wish Granting program, Starlight Express Van and Starlight Escapes.
Thanks to FunFlight more Starlight children and their families have been able to access and benefit from Starlight's Escapes Program, which provides children and their families with some much needed time out. Starlight is pleased to be involved with FunFlight for the second year running, after having taken part in the first ever FunFlight in May of last year.
As FunFlight takes off nationally this year, Starlight and FunFlight are excited to be working together to reach more seriously ill children and their families in remote and regional areas across Australia.
