$174KAwareness congenital heart walks: the children's heart foundation's congenital heart walk series is the nation's largest walk series solely dedicated to raising awareness and funds for congenital heart defect research. 36 congenital heart walk events took place in 2024. The walks offer a chance to strengthen our community and spread awareness about america's most common birth defect - chds, and we raised almost $2,300,000!fundraising events and campaigns: various fundraising events and campaigns took place throughout 2024, including #givingtuesday, heart month, volunteer appreciation month, and our matching from the heart campaign - all of which helped raise awareness and funds of the children's heart foundation's critical mission.general awareness: the children's heart foundation utilizes social media and video storytelling to spread further awareness of chds and chf. Our social media efforts focus on sharing stories of children, adults, and families impacted by chds, as well as telling our audience about the important research efforts we are funding. These tools help us reach people who may not have previously known about our important work.
Program 2
$151KAdvocacy we endeavored to create more awareness of the need for advocacy for those with chds and their family members by telling their story on our websites, in video, and through special broadcast productions, like the pbs visionaries series. Our advocacy efforts focus on raising awareness of the need for increased funding for research, survivival,longevity and quality of life efforts which have dramatically increased for chd patients. There has been a 37.5% decrease in babies dying at birth which is a tremendous result, but we know that babies are still being born daily with chds.we intend to provide more educational and outreach opportunities around the current environment for congenital heart defects. Our advocacy efforts seek to educate our communities on the significance of congenital heart defects and its impact on individuals and families.
