Mission and programs · 2024

• STARLIGHT PROGRAMS: STARLIGHT AIMS TO DELIVER HAPPINESS TO HOSPITALIZED CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES. CAREFULLY CRAFTED TO ADDRESS THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF PEDIATRIC PATIENTS, STARLIGHT'S VITAL PROGRAMS INCLUDING STARLIGHT NINTENDO GAMING, STARLIGHT VIRTUAL REALITY, STARLIGHT HOSPITAL GOWNS, AND STARLIGHT TOY DELIVERIES PROVIDE COMFORT, DISTRACTION, AND A SENSE OF NORMALCY TO KIDS COPING WITH HOSPITALIZATION. THE IMPACT OF THESE PROGRAMS REACHES EVEN FURTHER TO THE FAMILIES AND CAREGIVERS, CREATING A SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY THAT NURTURES KIDS WHEN THEY NEED IT MOST.

  Expenses $12,957,681 · Grants $10,616,772 · Revenue $146,149

• PRESCRIPTION FOR PLAY: STARLIGHT IS PROUD TO COLLABORATE WITH THE LEGO GROUP AND THE WEITZMAN INSTITUTES' "PRESCRIPTION FOR PLAY PROGRAM" TO RECOGNIZE THE CRITICAL ROLE OF PLAY IN EARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT. PARTICIPATING IN THIS PROGRAM, STARLIGHT HELPS INTEGRATE PLAY INTO THE ENTIRE HEALTHCARE JOURNEY TO SUPPORT CHILD DEVELOPMENT AND POSITIVE PATIENT ENGAGEMENT. THE WEITZMAN INSTITUTE (THE INNOVATION AND RESEARCH ARM OF THE MOSES/WEITZMAN HEALTH SYSTEM, A 501(C)(3)) PROVIDES FUNDING TO STARLIGHT TO FACILITATE THE DISTRIBUTION OF PRESCRIPTION FOR PLAY LEGO KITS TO PEDIATRIC OFFICES ACROSS THE U.S. DURING HEALTHCARE VISITS. PUBLIC CONTRIBUTIONS TO STARLIGHT ARE NOT USED TO COMPLETE THIS DISTRIBUTION ACTIVITY.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made
