Take Heart Association Project (THAP)

 

About

The Children's Heart Foundation was founded in 1996 and is the country's leading organization solely dedicated to funding congenital heart defect (CHD) research. 

Mission

To advance the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of congenital heart defects by funding the most promising research.

More Information

To date, through 2021, The Children’s Heart Foundation has funded $15 million of CHD research and scientific collaborations— driving breakthroughs that have improved survival rates, longevity, and quality of life for individuals living with CHDs in dramatic and life-changing ways. In many cases, we’ve provided start-up funding for research that’s gone on to earn support from larger entities such as the National Institutes of Health or the U.S. Department of Defense, along with pharmaceutical and/or medical device industries. The research we fund is truly moving the needle.

With your support, we are saving lives and Placing Children at the Heart of Research. 

“There are so many children who would not be here if not for research funded by The Children’s Heart Foundation,” Nishibayashi says. “It’s a lifeline for heart families like mine.”
