Brave Little Hearts
Mission
To provide comfort and guidance to children, families and caregivers in their struggle from onset of pre-birth diagnosis, birth, hospital stay and home care throughout their life journey as they face the challenges of Congenital Heart Disease (CHD).
About
Brave little Hearts empowers CHD kids and their family by letting them know they are not travelling this journey alone. We have taken this approach because we know first hand it is very personal journey. Brave little Hearts for Michael and Friends knows this is a matter of the heart. The relationship we have built with Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia CICU will be replicated to other hospitals that serve CHD families. Funding is needed for projects and programs to support the children and families impacted by Congenital Heart Disease. Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect in America, on average affecting 40,000 births per year. About 25% of these babies are born with a Critical Congenital Heart Disease (CCHD) where the heart defect will require multiple surgeries within the first year of life.
