Director of Leadership Giving


Company Description

Children's HeartLink saves children's lives by transforming pediatric heart care in underserved parts of the world. One in 100 children is born with heart disease, but only one in 10 has access to care. Children's HeartLink is working to change that by partnering with hospitals in Brazil, China, India, Malaysia, and Vietnam. These partnerships involve multi-year commitments to train and empower medical teams in the delivery of high-quality, team-based care. Successful local hospitals can become Children's HeartLink Centers of Excellence, which then train other pediatric cardiac specialists from low-resource environments, maximizing the impact of the train-the-trainer model.
