Caltex has delivered a record-breaking fundraising effort to help sick kids access the fun and laughter of the Starlight Express Rooms and Captain Starlight.
The Caltex service station network raised $291,385 in one week, exceeding last year’s total thanks to the passionate and generous support of its people, partners, suppliers and customers.
Chevron Australia Downstream (Caltex) General Manager Lorne Chambers says Caltex is proud to be a platinum partner of Starlight Children’s Foundation Australia, raising nearly $5 million to help bring joy to the lives of sick children.
“Our teams across Australia donned the yellow and purple to drive donations, and generate support for in-store promotions, bake sales, raffles and Starlight signature events,” Mr Chambers said.
“A huge shout out to our company owned and operated retail network for their creative contributions that make Starlight Week a truly special occasion and a unique experience for our customers.
“We’d really like to thank our amazing customers and suppliers who dug deep to make this the best and brightest Starlight Week yet,” he said.
The funds raised throughout Starlight Week will help over 7471 kids transform their hospital experience.
“The Caltex brand strives to make a positive difference in the communities in which it operates and is proud to be long-standing partner of Starlight Children’s Foundation Australia.”
Caltex is a brand owned by Chevron, one of the world’s leading integrated energy companies with more than 70 years of history in Australia.
