Hello friends and family. I am participating the The Healing Hearts Project 1 Mile Walk Fundraiser on April 1st, 2024! Please support my effort with a small donation and help me reach my fundraising goal.
The Healing Hearts Project
The Healing Hearts Project (THHP) is a non-profit that serves patients and families affected by Congenital Heart Disease (CHD), the most common type of birth defect affecting 1 in every 100 babies born. The mission of THHP is to be a relatable source for both patients and caregivers coping with CHD by providing care packs, essentials during hospital stays and a support group to connect with other families facing the same challenges. THHP currently supports 272 heart families and has more than 30 dedicated volunteers that log thousands of hours per year as they support families through Wolfson’s Children’s Hospital and UF Pediatric Cardiology in Jacksonville, Florida. To learn more, visit www.thehealtingheartsproject.org.
THHP provides all supplies for the “Heart Cart” that is stocked with snacks, coffee, towels, toiletries and entertainment for families waiting during surgery. Hot meals are also provided to families on surgery days, as well as Cath Lab Care Packets and Surgery Day Care Packs that include essentials for overnight hospital stays. Volunteers with THHP have logged more than 2,900 hours in 2019 and they continue to work closely with hospital and clinical staff to learn about new ways they can offer supplies and support.
So, no matter if you can give $20 or $100, every dollar counts when it comes to supporting this organization I have a passion for.
