Help save the lives of children with heart disease and build sustainable health systems in under-served corners of the globe.

Now in its 41st year, Children's HeartLink has developed strategic partnerships in underserved countries to improve pediatric cardiac care. Children’s HeartLink partners with hospitals in India, China, Ukraine, Vietnam, Malaysia, South Africa and Brazil. We send volunteer medical teams from around the world to partner sites to train, teach and perform lifesaving heart procedures on children. Each year, Children’s HeartLink mobilizes more than a hundred of the world’s top medical professionals from the most prestigious centers of excellence including Mayo Clinic, Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital at Stanford University, Boston Children’s Hospital, New York-Presbyterian Hospital and the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.

    As an employee of Children's HeartLink, I have traveled to India and witnessed firsthand the amazing work of this organization. The medical teams we support are truly grateful for our support, and there are simply no words to describe the gratitude of the parents and families of the children. Your donations are appreciated and will be put to good use!!
