Join Dave Koz in Delivering Happiness to Hospitalized Kids

Starlight Children's Foundation is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization, therefore all general donations are tax-deductible within the guidelines of U.S. law. To claim a donation as a deduction on your U.S. taxes, please keep your email donation receipt as your official record. We'll send it to you upon the successful completion of your donation.

We strive for the highest grades possible in accountability and transparency across non-profit organizations. Starlight has been a 4-star rated charity on Charity Navigator for seven consecutive years, an achievement only attained by 13% of charities.

Your donation helps Starlight deliver a full range of programs, such as Toy Deliveries, Gaming Stations, Hero Wagons, or Hospital Gowns to our nationwide network of hospitals. Each hospital can request the programs and quantities they need and Starlight fulfills the items with the help of donations like yours. If you want to directly fund a Starlight program for your local hospital, contact us at [email protected].

Yes! We maintain a safe environment for donor data with Level 1 PCI compliance and SSL Security. We never store credit card or debit card information.

All donations to Starlight fund our programs at hospitals across the country. Online credit card processors deduct a small fee from each donation, which we do not collect and cannot use. We encourage donors to cover this small feel so that the full amount of their donation can be invested in Starlight programs.

Starlight does not offer refunds. We cherish every donation and work hard to ensure every gift is put to work delivering happiness to hospitalized kids. If you or one of your supporters have made an error with a donation or circumstances have suddenly changed, please contact us at [email protected] to discuss options.
