Our purpose is to make a real and lasting impact for the Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) community.We seek to give every child, teenager, and adult in Australia with congenital or childhood acquired heart disease a fighting chance to live a long, healthy, and fulfilling life. Our support is a commitment for life because there is no known cure. People with congenital heart disease face unique challenges for their entire life.
