Swedish Heartchild Foundation

Hjärtebarnsfonden (The Swedish Heartchild Foundation) is a non-governmental organisation that started in 1975. We help them who suffer from congenital heart disease and support scientific research.

 

Every year, we arrange several different camps for children, adolescents and adults with congenital heart defects. The activities are adapted so that the participants can experience the joy of movement without putting their hearts at risk. Of course, as a parent, you are always welcome to participate!

We offer support to affected families, both emotionally and financially. As the fear and worry is often overwhelming for parents of heart children, we hold support groups. For particularly hard-hit families, we can provide support in connection with treatment and habilitation. Parents who lose a child due to a congenital heart defect can also receive a funeral allowance.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us for further information!

Ljudet av ett litet hjärta

Varje år föds 2000 barn med hjärtfel. Ett av dem är Dante och han föddes med tre. Nu har Dantes föräldrar, tillsammans med bandet Amason, spelat in hans hjärtslag och skapat en ny version av The Knifes låt “Heartbeats”. Varje gång låten spelas går intäkterna till stöd och forskning via Hjärtebarnsfonden.
