Delivering Happiness and Disney Magic in Georgia


Starlight delivers happiness to seriously ill kids because we know happy kids heal faster. From laughing with a child life specialist to playing with friends, even small moments of happiness can make a difference.

Supporters like Disney and Lucasfilm make it possible to deliver Starlight programs with a bit of magic. Together, we provide Disney-themed Starlight Gowns featuring kids’ favorite characters and entertaining Virtual Reality games to hospitals across the country.

Patients at Piedmont Athens Regional Medical Center in Athens, Georgia, are so grateful for their Disney-themed Gowns and Virtual Reality games.

“During these challenging times, the impact of such gifts extends well beyond the patient to parents and staff as they make hospital admission a bit brighter and reduce fear and anxiety regarding the hospital environment,” said Deanna, Certified Child Life Specialist at Piedmont Athens Regional.
