Hospital stays don’t pause for the holidays.

Kids miss home, and traditions are replaced with treatments and uncertainty. 

This holiday season, thousands of children are hospitalized across the country. Starlight Children's Foundation is preparing to deliver toys to as many of them as possible, bringing a little holiday magic right to their hospital room. Donations from individuals like you help us deliver toys to a child near you and thousands more. Together, we can ensure no child feels forgotten this holiday season. 

We make it easy. You donate; we handle the rest.
