Welcome to Starfish!

Starfish Greathearts Foundation is an international development charity, aiming to bring life, hope and opportunity to children in southern Africa who have been orphaned or made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS.  We believe that everyone can make a very real difference to the lives of these children. 

You can help reach out to each child in need - one at a time!

Little girlMost people think about trying to change the world; very few take action though.

When a group of friends sat in a London coffee shop in 2001, Starfish was born and this year celebrates its eighth anniversary as a UK registered charity.
