HARBORING HEARTS' Fundraiser:
Harboring Hearts Emergency Fund
BENEFITING: HARBORING HEARTS
EVENT: #STARTARYOT Challenge
THE STORY:
Harboring Hearts is the only nonprofit organization specifically dedicated to providing affordable, short-term housing and resources for heart patients and families that travel to New York City for lifesaving medical treatment. With your support we can continue to raise awareness, enhance partnerships with top New York-area hospitals, provide emotional and logistical support, and pave the way for hope and healing.
A $10 donation will go a long way when you share our cause. Emergency funding averages $1000 -- by raising $25k we can meet the needs of at least 25 families who have a loved one undergoing cardiac treatment. If we surpass this goal, it is: up to $1k = 1 Family/Patient Helped = 1 Shared Goal.
The Harboring Hearts Emergency Fund Program was created to broaden our capacity to provide assistance (i.e. rent, transportation, childcare) for families and caregivers of cardiac patients who come to New York City in pursuit of the finest possible medical health care. In some cases, traveling to Manhattan is their only option to receive the care needed.
Why participate?
Heart disease affects people from all walks of life. According to the CDC, heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the U.S. Facing heart disease is emotionally and financially challenging, especially when traveling from far away to seek the best medical care.
Thank you for your support!
Harboring Hearts is a 501(c)3 which provides support and resources to heart patients and their families during the critical time of treatment. We seek to ease the financial and emotional burdens placed on individuals, families, or caregivers -- whether traveling from afar or remaining close to home -- during this challenging time.
