Create Meaningful Change
At the heart of impact

Creating meaningful change

heartKIDS exists to support children with congenital heart defects and the families who walk this journey alongside them. Volunteers are essential to delivering this mandate — extending our reach, strengthening our programmes, and ensuring no family feels alone during diagnosis, treatment, or recovery.

Greater Numbers.

Greater Impact.

When more people step forward to volunteer, heartKIDS can do more — support more families, raise greater awareness, host more community initiatives, and advocate more strongly for CHD care across South Africa.
