February is American Heart Month
It’s American Heart Month – A time to spotlight pediatric cardiomyopathy, a rare and underdiagnosed heart condition that affects children of all ages. While adult heart disease often takes center stage, we’re highlighting that children get heart disease too.
Children with cardiomyopathy face significant challenges, but with your support, we can raise awareness, educate the community, and fund life-saving research.
