GABRIEL STARLING - FOUNDER

Gabriel Starling was born in Duncanville, TX on March 10th, 2008.

Gabriel became a FortWorthian in the summer of 2016. He now attends North Elementary.

Gabriel’s passion for supporting others can be traced back to when he was 7 years old, where he spent significant time raising money and awareness on what Breast Cancer is and what Cancer does.

His goal and tagline: "No kid should ever be without a Mama," motivated him to raise more than $20,000 in 2017. He donated these funds to Cancer Care Services on behalf of his amazing friend, Emily McLaughlin.

Gabriel Starling, 11, is still in elementary school and, already, is the founder of his own nonprofit. The 501(c)3 Tough Stars Gives Back supports charitable and educational purposes with the goal of engaging the community and helping those in need.
