Fun Center in Royal Oak?

The Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation is an organization that helps seriously ill children and their families cope with their pain, fear and isolation through entertainment, education and family activities. They work to soften the hard edges of what a family experiences when a child has a serious illness. They create a sense of community between families who are having similar experiences by providing opportunities for them to escape the hospital, doctors, nurses, needles and treatments and doing something fun where they get to join others and just feel "normal" again--perhaps even forgetting that anyone is sick for a short while.

Colgate-Palmolive and Starlight Starbright have created a national online voting contest to choose where the next fun center will be located. The vote will result in five hospitals receiving Fun Centers. The birth of our child is planned to be at one these hospitals, William Beaumont in Royal Oak, MI.

Please take a moment and follow the link to vote for the William Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, MI. Hurry and vote from as many computers as you can find (one vote per computer, per day). Voting is currently open and will be ending on March 31, 2007.
