Be A Star Foundation was created by the Healey family who experienced the emotionally and financially devastating effects of caring for a child with cancer first-hand. After the experience, the family decided they wanted to do something to help other families in the community with similar situations. Be A Star Foundation assists critically ill children and their families in South Florida. In the first year of fundraising, Be A Star Foundation was able to raise $250,000 for P.O.S.T. (the Pediatric Oncology Support Team) at the Children's Hospital at St. Mary's Medical Center. P.O.S.T. helps children with cancer and their families deal with the impact of cancer by providing free comprehensive services and support. Be A Star Foundation also supports the Nicklaus Children's Health Care Foundation, which was established to provide support to enhance the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of childhood diseases and disorders. In the five years since the Foundation was started, Be A Star Foundation has raised more than $3 million for the P.O.S.T. and the Nicklaus Children's Health Care Foundation.
