Our Story

Why did we start this foundation?

In a rural hospital in South-South Nigeria, Dr Angela, a skilled paediatric Cardiologist felt the pang for children unable to afford life-saving heart surgeries.
A conversation with Dr. Maxy revealed a shared concern. She joined forces with her professional colleagues, Dr Blossom Maduafokwa, Dr Chinwe Egbo, Professor Maxy Odike and Mrs Patience Nzeliebe, to embark on a journey to make quality heart surgeries accessible to every child in need.
Join us as we continue this mission. Together, we're not just fixing hearts; we're mending the future, one heartbeat at a time.

Health Talks
