Advocating for children with heart disease
Children’s HeartLink advocates with decision-makers to ensure ALL children have access to high-quality and affordable pediatric heart care.
Transforming access to care for children with CHD
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the second-leading cause of infant deaths in low- and middle-income countries. Most families in these regions have nowhere to turn for appropriate medical care when their child is born with a heart defect. Children’s HeartLink is working to change that.
Helping you get involved
When you support Children’s HeartLink, you make it possible for children and families around the globe to gain access to heart care that is otherwise unavailable. With your help, we can reach more and more children every year.
