Creators of All Categories Welcome
Starlight’s creator community is as varied as the kids we serve. We work with variety streamers, speedrunners, cozy gamers, artists, musicians, cosplayers, IRL and Just Chatting hosts, VTubers, tabletop players, and esports competitors. Whatever you stream and however big your audience is, there’s a place for you at Starlight. <3

After the meetup, find us in the Charity Zone at TwitchCon all weekend. Bring your friends!
About Starlight
Hospital stays can be lonely, stressful, and scary. That’s why Starlight exists.
Founded in 1982, Starlight Children’s Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization that delivers happiness to seriously ill children and their families. Our donor-funded programs are free of charge and reach millions of kids each year in more than 800 hospitals and pediatric facilities across the country, making Starlight the nation’s broadest-reaching children’s foundation. Starlight programs use the power of play to give kids a renewed sense of optimism, resilience, and courage. Starlight is a top-rated charity committed to distributing its programs equitably across its nationwide hospital network.
Stream for Starlight
Stream for Starlight brings together creators and their communities to raise funds that bring play, comfort, and joy to kids in the hospital. Every stream makes a difference, whatever your channel size.
