Starlight Brave Gowns make sick kids feel like superstars!
Starlight Brave Gowns make sick kids feel like superstars!

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 29, 2016 -- Starlight Children’s Foundation today announced that Niagara Bottling, through its philanthropic program Niagara Cares, has donated $1.4 million to the children’s health charity in support of Starlight programs that brighten the lives of seriously ill children and their families.

Niagara is transforming the hospital experience for tens of thousands of children.

Post this

The donation includes a matching gift challenge for up to 28,000 Starlight Brave Gowns in support of the charity’s newly launched program to revolutionize children’s hospital gowns. For every $25 Starlight Brave Gown donated at http://www.starlight.org, Niagara will match the donation on a one-for-one basis.

“We are incredibly grateful to the leadership and employees at Niagara for this truly outstanding gift and for continuing to support Starlight’s mission of brightening the lives of seriously ill children and their families,” said Starlight CEO Chris Helfrich. “Niagara is transforming the hospital experience for tens of thousands of children, and the company’s matching gift challenge in support of our Starlight Brave Gowns program, in particular, will help ensure that more than 50,000 hospitalized children will receive a new, state-of-the-art gown."

Starlight Brave Gowns replace unattractive, uncomfortable and embarrassing children’s hospital gowns with high-quality, comfortable and brightly colored gowns that help sick kids feel like superstars. Available in ten different designs for children ages 2 through 12, Starlight Brave Gowns are made of super soft, comfortable fabric and manufactured in the USA to meet strict hospital infection and safety protocols. They are specially designed for sick children and allow for easy access to ports and heart monitors as well as openings for IVs on both sleeves.

In total, the donation from Niagara will fund the placement of 28,000 Starlight Brave Gowns, 23 Starlight Fun Center mobile entertainment units and two beautifully redesigned hospital rooms called Starlight Sites in 23 communities across the US where the company has bottling plants and operations. Niagara will also fund a research project to help ensure the Starlight Brave Gowns program achieves maximum impact.

Starlight and Niagara launched the partnership in early 2015 with a $300,000 grant to deliver Starlight Fun Centers and other urgently needed items such as books, toys, games and other products to thousands of hospitalized children. In the past year, Niagara’s support has expanded to include the building or renovation of ten Starlight Sites and the continued placement of nearly 100 Starlight Fun Centers in communities across the US.

About Starlight Children’s Foundation
