Since it began in 1994, the insurance industry has raised over $6.7 million in support of Starlight Children’s Foundation Canada on their mission to brighten the lives of seriously ill children – from hospital to home.

Last year, our year-round Starlight Insurance Campaign returned to break records once again in support of Starlight Canada! Thanks to the generosity of the insurance community, over $500,000 was raised in 2025 to help spread joy to sick kids across Canada.

Now celebrating an incredible 32 years, we aim to raise $526,000 in 2026 and surpass an outstanding $7 million in total donations to Starlight Canada since 1994! With your support, the insurance industry can make a lasting impact on the lives of countless families, and your generosity will continue to light up the future for seriously ill children across Canada.
