We're truly grateful for your visit to our team page!
Every 15 minutes in the United States, a baby is born with a congenital heart defect, making CHDs the most common birth defect in our country. The Congenital Heart Walk is dedicated to making a difference. Our mission is clear - we aim to raise funds to support The Children's Heart Foundation in its quest to advance the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of CHDs by funding groundbreaking research.
Mackenzie was one of those babies born with a CHD called Tetralogy of Fallot. This diagnosis led to two open heart surgeries, a thoractomoy, cardiac catheterization, and many EKGs, echos, chest Xrays and other breathing interventions all before the age of 3. She is one of the bravest kids we know!
We invite you to join us in this mission. By supporting our team or even walking with us, you're contributing to research that can save and enhance the lives of infants born with CHDs, as well as children and adults living with these conditions. Your support makes a significant impact, and for that, we want to say a heartfelt thank you.
Will you join us in making a real difference? Please consider supporting our team or walking with us. Every step we take brings us closer to improving the lives of those affected by congenital heart defects.
