New Heart Mom?
If your child has recently been diagnosed with a CHD, you can request one of our 'Brave Little Heart' newborn care packages, apply for a grant, and search for additional resources.
What is CHD?
Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are the most common type of birth defect. CHDs are present at birth and can affect the structure of a baby’s heart and the way it works. They can affect how blood flows through the heart and out to the rest of the body.

Little Hearts, Big Hats
Many of you have heard that the American Heart Association ended its long-standing program called Little Hats, Big Hearts, due to the possibility of SIDS. Remi used one of the little red hats that someone knitted out of love and generosity. When we heard the AHA program ended, we wanted to give those compassionate yarn crafters a new program to be involved in.
WE HELP BECAUSE...
Heart families have enough to worry about while their child is in the hospital. We want them to be able to solely focus on their warrior without the added worry of bills accumulating.
100% of your donation makes a difference because we are 100% volunteer driven.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide financial and emotional support to families of children diagnosed with a critical congenital heart defect. We provide assistance to these families when they need it the most. This allows them to solely focus on their warrior's care without the added stress of bills piling up. These costs include but are not limited to travel expenses to and from medical facilities, food expenses while away from home, along lodging expenses while receiving care.
Remington’s EKG
In Memory of Remington
Our journey in CHD life was brief...
Remington was born on February 1st, 2017 with a rare and incurable critical congenital heart defect called HLHS.
Her parents were given three difficult options that no parent should ever have to choose from. Ultimately, they chose to give her a chance at life through open-heart surgeries.
Remi was a rockstar, and she beat all of the odds after her first open-heart surgery. Right before she turned 2 months old, she passed away due to complications caused by her complex heart.
