Children's Heart Foundation was set up on 10th November 1994 by a group of concerned parents with children suffering from congenital heart conditions. We have an office located at the Grantham Hospital which is the main centre for the treatment of peadiatric heart disease in Hong Kong. The Hospital provides full support to the Children's Heart Foundation and cooperates closely with us on all our work.
The running of the organisation is entirely dependent on donations. Apart from receiving donation from the public and placing donation boxes at certain locations, we organize a number of fund-raising activities to support our services.
Our charitable activities, include providing financial support for treatment; purchasing medical equipment; arranging oversea surgeons to come to Hong Kong; providing overnight accommodation for parents of the hospitalised children; and organising regular educational; recreational and supporting activities for members.
