FEATURED CHARITY:
Help bring a splash of colour to sick kids in hospital!
Just because you’re sick doesn’t mean you stop being a kid. And it shouldn’t mean missing out on all the fun of childhood. So Starlight Children’s Foundation helps sick kids simply be kids. We replace pain, fear and stress with fun, joy and laughter.
We know there’s more to treating an illness than just medicine, that’s why we work hand in hand with health professionals. Play, art, games and creativity are all important to a child’s wellbeing and that helps overall health too. Fun, happy experiences are good for the mind and good for the body. (And fun is what we do best!)
When you fundraise for Starlight, every dollar counts. Your support helps to create colourful memories for sick kids like George.
Cheeky little George doesn’t let cancer get in the way of having fun. In between medical treatments, George puts the pain aside to have fun doing regular kid stuff at Starlight Express Rooms with his big sister Arabella. Just ask George’s Mum: “Starlight has supported us every day. The crafts, the dancing and game playing all create so many happy and positive memories for us.”
We’d love to see you creating your own colourful memories at Color Run while you fundraise for sick kids.
If you can’t make it you can still donate and help bring a splash of colour to sick kids lives: https://donate.everydayhero.com/d/QgNdZAWvXNKggJBa6hR2RQ/amount
