Starlight Once In A Lifetime Wishes™

“It was amazing; all that a wish should be. The happiest week of our lives! My daughter smiled more in one week than the whole year combined.” – Julie, Starlight mom of 10-year-old Emily, who lives with Rett syndrome

Starlight Once In A Lifetime Wishes™ are often the brightest stars in an otherwise dark sky for children growing up with a serious illness. This program gives sick kids the chance to dream big and make a wish of their own – an empowering moment for a child or teen who has had so much of their life controlled by illness. Starlight Canada takes these dreams and makes them a reality.

Available for children between the ages of 4 to 18, these unique, once-in-a-lifetime experiences provide lasting memories for the whole family. A Starlight Once In A Lifetime Wish is our most powerful stardust that gives sick kids hope for better days, strength to keep fighting and a reason to believe in magic.
