  1. Volunteering at Starfish We welcome volunteers! Starfish is a working foster home with 47 babies and a staff of 28. It is a busy place! Each baby needs love, care, and the comforting reassurance of another’s touch. Each baby comes to this foster home with special medical needs as well, and undergoes life-saving surgeries that will transform the child’s life. We rely on volunteers to bring that special touch, a warm heart, and a friendly smile into the lives of these special children. You may chooseto help with the baby care, but we are always in need of help in a variety of other areas as well.
