Philanthropic Impact

More children than ever are surviving congenital heart disease, but the ongoing care they need impacts every area of their lives. Our goal for our patients is not just to live longer lives, but richer, fuller lives—and we have the compassion, expertise and determination to ensure that every child thrives.

To achieve this, our Heart Center team will focus efforts in four areas — personalized prevention to safeguard children’s heart health; accelerated diagnosis to help children get the best start in life and reduce complications; groundbreaking intervention through dedicated scientific inquiry to make heart surgery safer and improve long term health; and exceptional outcomes that enhance life for every child by ensuring the right treatment at the right time, giving kids the best chance to not only survive, but thrive.

Lurie Children’s Heart Center is poised to shape the next advances in pediatric cardiac medicine. Our success will be measured not by new breakthroughs, but by the children who will experience better health, a higher quality of life and a brighter future.
