My son, Jared, is 8 years old and has disabilities. He is legally blind, is developmentally delayed, and has cerebral palsy. We got involved with Starlight when he was about 4 years old. Starlight has given our family opportunities to have family fun and shared experiences that we would never have been able to do on our own. We have done so many wonderful things over the past few years like hayrides, sporting events, car shows and car museums, ice shows, the circus. trips to the zoo, plus so much more. The folks at Starlight work extremely hard to put events together. We so look forward to attending their outtings because we know we will have a great time. Every event is so well planned and great for the family. We are so grateful for all that Starlight has done for us. I would encourage everyone who has a "special" child to participate because these events are planned for kids with disabilities and it is their time to shine. It is a nice feeling to know that there are people who care and want these kids to have wonderful opportunities in life.

Having a child with complex medical issues, means many days of therapy, specialist appointments and sometimes hospitalizations. Starlight Children's Foundation has given our child and our family a chance to experience some normalcy and make great memories that we otherwise would not have experienced. Their programs have provided our child with the biggest smiles and some of the best times of his life. The programs have also given our family the opportunity to meet other families in similar situations, and we have made lifelong friends. This is an outstanding organization and we are forever grateful for all that they do.

Having a child with severe disability means hours spent in therapy and with doctors and hospitals. Our family has developed a "normal" that typical families can only imagine. Our disabled son sets the tone for our family through his health and schedule. We often avoid family outings due to his specific needs and the financial obligations of his care. Starlight has provided us with events where we can relax and enjoy our time together and be with other families who live our "normal". What an amazing gift to our disabled son and his siblings (who find comfort in knowing there are lots if families like ours out there). What can any parent ask for above the smiles of her children?

From the moment my son was diagnosed with cancer our life has been overflowing with blessings. Blessings such as this one. We were given the opportunity to experience motorcycle ice racing, something we hadn't ever heard about! I can't thank Starlight enough for helping bring a smile to my son's face. He enjoyed this experience so much, next up is monster trucks! =)

Starlight MidAtlantic has given many great opportunities to the patients at the hospital that I work at to have fun and not feel "sick." They have provided patients with tickets to great events, video games, pillow pets, and in hospital parties! They are willing to help out with special requests and are easy to work with.

Starlight Midatlantic has been a wonderful resource for our hospital. Our pediatric patients with long and short term illnesses benefit greatly from the services provided by Starlight Midatlantic. Everything from video games to toys, to supplies for holiday parties to help us celebrate milestones with our patients. We are very greatful for Starlight Midatlantic and the programming that they provide for our families! The staff at Starlight Midatlantic are wonderful! Thank you Starlight for all that you to do!!
We wish there was additional funding for our hospital to have an updated videogame system. :)

Starlight is the best nonprofits organization we belong to. My daughter is a brain cancer survivor, she has been with starlight for 8 years and they have been wonderful. Some of the things my daugher has participated on are: Holiday parties, movie premieres, halloween parties and more. Through this organization my daughter and I have been able to meet other pediatric cancer survivors and their families. We have built great friendships with them and the employees and volunteers at Starlight. Thank you Starlight
