7 steps to fundraise $250 in 7 days

Share some CHD Facts to help you fundraise

More than 257,000 children and adults are living with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) in Canada

CHD is #1 birth defect in the world

Today 95% of children with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) survive into adulthood

Congenital heart disease is approximately 60 times more prevalent than childhood cancer, but receives 1/5 of the funding

Twice as many children die from CHD each year than from all forms of childhood cancer combined.

There are 40 different types of congenital heart defects

There is no cure for CHD
