Who are you helping??

More than 600 babies are born with a Congenital Heart Defect (CHD) every year. Often, they have their first open heart surgery within weeks of being born. But did you know that undergoing heart surgery is not a cure for CHD? It helps them live, but having CHD presents them with unique challenges for the rest of their lives and for many, this includes ongoing medical treatment and repeated heart surgeries.

It's tough for the children; it's tough for their whānau! And as they grow up, there are new challenges to overcome. Heart Kids is there to walk alongside them on every step of their journey - from birth into adulthood.

You can make a difference

Any donation, be it $1 or more goes a massive way to making sure we can still be here to support our families, to walk alongside them on this journey that none of them would have wished for.

Your financial support provides relief to Auckland families having a trained family support worker to call on whenever they need. It allows us to provide support to families who may have lost their jobs or who have had to put their child's medical needs first. It helps to provide support groups, in person or virtually, to connect families together and remove the isolation they are facing. It helps to provide trained support, counselors or other medical professionals. It helps us support families who need palliative or bereavement support if their heart child loses their fight.

Your support helps provide resources, emergency hospital packs, welcome packs, medic alert bracelets, events tailored for Heart kids and their families and so much more.

Your support helps Auckland families survive.
