HeartKids

HeartKids is an Australian charity supporting children, young people, adults and families affected by childhood-onset heart disease (CoHD). The organisation works to improve the experiences of people living with chronic heart conditions that begin in childhood, offering support, services and resources for families and carers. Its website provides information about congenital and acquired childhood heart conditions, along with a resource library, articles, podcasts and videos to help people learn and find support.

HeartKids offers programs and services including early childhood programs, mental health support, a helpline and partner services. It also shares information for health professionals, schools and workplaces, and provides a CoHD directory. The organisation invites individuals and businesses to contribute through one-off or regular donations, workplace giving, community fundraising, partnerships and gifts in wills. Supporters can also volunteer, participate in events and campaigns, or shop for HeartKids items. Donations help fund practical assistance, such as care bags and hospital pantry supplies, as well as services for families.
