Review for Starlight Children's Foundation, Culver City, CA, USA
Starlight is a wonderful organization that is multifunctional. Not only do they put fun centers in childrens hospitals, put up safe chat rooms for teenagers to talk to others and feel safe and connected to others that have special needs or life threatening illnesses, but they put together the most amazing activities that families can do together; most activities we couldn't afford to do on our own. To top it all off; they bring in their starpower ambassadors to bring smiles to the kids faces. Our 3 year old has Spina Bifida, is in a wheelchair and has faced many hospitalizations and surgeries in his little life. This has been very challenging for my other four boys. Starlight has allowed us all to have fun and forget the reality of Kumaka's issues for just a little while. We have met a now dear family friend from Starlight; one of the starpower ambassadors who truly cares about our family and the other families she comes in contact with. Not only do we see her at some of the events, but she checks in with us to see how Kumaka is doing as well as the other boys. We have felt an outpouring of love and joy from being a part of this organization and hope to one day be able to be on the giving end. We can truly say that Starlight has changed our lives.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
our family having fun activities and meeting young stars trying to make a difference in their community. Also in game centers and movies donated to the hospital my son goes to.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
the extra family time doing activities that we wouldn't necessarily be able to do.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
Very friendly and helpful and truly care about the kids and their families.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
make sure that all hospitals had fun centers and they could keep their youth networking sites up to date and even cooler for the kids.
