STARS IN THE SKY
Michael's Legacy
Who We Are
Stars In The Sky – The Michael Tok Foundation is a nonprofit born in Sydney, Australia. Our mission is to prevent sarcoma fatalities by raising community awareness of sarcoma in young people through the provision of free education on sarcoma cancer and early symptoms.
Stars In The Sky was founded in memory of Michael Tok by his devoted partner Jessica Tok, as a continuation of his legacy. Michael’s foundation couldn’t exist without the help of his strong community of family, friends and supporters, championing Michael since diagnosis through to our inception in 2022.
What We Do
Stars In The Sky exists as a haven of support and empowerment for young individuals diagnosed with sarcoma. Young people are cancer’s lost generation, often forgotten in the middle and overlooked, leading to frequent misdiagnoses, delayed treatment and poorer outcomes. We are dedicated to supporting young people and their communities through their journey by:
- Raising awareness in the community by emphasizing the importance of early detection through educational initiatives.
- Empowering patients and their families with access to vital resources and information on sarcoma.
- Raising funds towards advancing research for better treatments and ultimately finding a cure.
- Create a space for grieving families and encouraging legacy work for young people who have lost their battles. Young people have more of a story to tell than anyone and it deserves to be shared. They are all stars in the sky, helping us, helping others from above.
