A cancer diagnosis can turn a child’s world upside down.  Life becomes a series of hospital visits, treatments, and physical pain — replacing school days, sleepovers, and soccer practice. For kids like Ashton, the childhood they knew is suddenly out of reach. That's why Starlight provides play-based programs to hospitals and families, to let kids be just that, kids! Join the Upside Down Challenge today to support hospitalized kids and let them know they’re not alone. 🌟 Learn more at the link in our bio. 🔗
