Nigel Bogaert's Fundraising Page
Thank you for visiting Five Star Claims Adjusting's and Nigel Bogaert's fundraising page dedicated to Starlight Children’s Foundation! I have decided to help raise funds for this wonderful organization because I believe in all of the good work that they do.
As a devoted supporter of Starlight, we encourage others to make an investment that will make a huge difference in the lives of more seriously ill children and their families in Florida. Please join Five Star Claims Adjusting in supporting the Starlight Florida 8th Annual Greater Open Golf Tournament on Friday, October 29, 2010 at Jacaranda Golf Club in Plantation, Florida.
Remember that donating through this Firstgiving website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support Starlight’s fundraising efforts.
Children fighting serious medical conditions often feel like they are alone. They don’t get to see their friends as often as they would like. Most of their time is spent shuffling between hospital rooms or meeting with physicians. With so much commotion on the outside, it is easy to forget there is a child on the inside.
When a child or teenager has a serious medical condition, everyone in the family is affected. Your gift will ensure that more families have access to Starlight’s entertainment, education and family activity programs that have been proven to distract children from their pain, help them better understand and manage their illnesses, and connect families facing similar challenges so that no one feels alone. Won't you please show your support today by using this form to make a contribution?
Your participation – either financially or as a volunteer - enables Starlight to provide seriously ill children with a variety of programs and services that entertain and educate, and most importantly, provide them moments when they can forget about their medical condition and focus on what they do best – be kids.
Programs supported by these proceeds include:
- Great Escapes, family activities and events during which seriously ill children, their parents and their siblings can regroup as well as meet other families in similar circumstances. To host a Great Escape outing costs $2,000.
- Fun Centers, mobile entertainment units containing a DVD player and Nintendo Wii™ to help hospitalized children pass long hours and find distraction from medical procedures. To place a Fun Center in a hospital, the cost is $4,250.

Starlight will remain a source of hope, joy, and empowerment because of the loyalty of friends like us. Together, we can continue to connect seriously ill kids with a community that embraces them today, tomorrow and as long as we are needed.
