The Starlight Children's Foundation needs your support this May to help raise $1.5 million as part of Starlight Day - the organisation's biggest annual fundraising event that aims to transform the experience of hospitalisation and treatment for seriously ill children across Australia.

Starlight is calling for 5,000 volunteers to help collect donations and sell Starlight merchandise in shopping centres, business districts and train stations across Australia between Thursday 2nd of May and Sunday 5th of May.

All funds raised will go towards supporting the long-term wellbeing and resilience of seriously ill children and their families.
