-When Ronnie blessed our lives, I made a joyful promise to him—to tirelessly support congenital heart defect (CHD) research with all my heart. Nearly 9 years later, we’re still going strong, raising funds with love and optimism! There’s no finish line yet, as a cure remains on the horizon, but our CHD heroes—like our amazing Ronnie—light up the world with their resilience! Together, we’re building a future where medical advancements bring better diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, ensuring every precious heart thrives for a lifetime.
-June 30th, will mark THREE incredible years since Ronnie’s open heart surgery—a milestone that reminds us how miraculous every day with his bright smile and unstoppable spirit truly is! We owe so much to the brilliant doctors, dedicated researchers, and caring organizations who make these moments possible for kids with CHD. To honor this beautiful chapter, we’re raising funds to push forward the fight against congenital heart defects—every heartbeat is a reason to hope! If Ronnie’s journey inspires you, please consider a donation, no matter the size—each one plants a seed for a healthier tomorrow. Your kindness could spark the next breakthrough, touching countless lives with love and possibility!
