Volunteer Opportunities
Why Volunteer?
Volunteers form the core of Starlight Children's Foundation. Our volunteers contributed more than 8,000 hours of their time during our 2008-09 program year. We invite you to join us in our ongoing mission to "help seriously ill children and their families cope with their pain, fear and isolation through entertainment, education and family activities."
