Event Announcements

What an unforgettable Walk Day! Your energy, generosity, and passion made this year’s event truly special. Because of YOU,
we’ve raised critical, life-saving funds for CHD research !
Walk Day Photos are here! Be sure to tag yourself, your team, and your Heart Warrior! Click here! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for walking, fundraising, and showing up for our CHD community. Together, we’re making an incredible impact.
WHY WE WALK
Join us for a meaningful one-mile walk where heart families, supporters, and survivors unite for change. This family-friendly event brings our community together, honoring Heart Warriors we've lost and celebrating those still fighting. We walk side by side - heart families, bereaved families, and supporters - showing that no one faces CHDs alone.
Your fundraising fuels vital research for congenital heart defects - the most common birth defect, affecting 1 in 110 babies. Through The Children's Heart Foundation's research grants, we fund innovative treatments and surgical advances that help children with CHD live longer, healthier lives.
