The Heart Foundation is a charity dedicated to fighting the single biggest killer of Australians – heart disease. For over 50 years, we’ve led the battle to save lives and improve the heart health of all Australians.

Story

I am raising funds for the National Heart Foundation during the annual Gear Up Girl ride! Heart disease affects 1 in 6 Australians, takes the lives of 1 Australian every 27 minutes, and is the number one cause of death of Aussie Women. I am here to make you aware of this, so please donate to help me raise funds for further research, and treatments. 82% of all funding into research for the NHF comes from kind donations from the general public.

Some Stats:

-A donation of as little as $2 can give researchers with the basic tools necessary to understand the causes of heart disease and to develop treatments that save lives.

-Did you know you can grow heart cells? Just $50 pays for a bottle of nutrient solution to grow some. Researchers can then study them and understand more about how they work and what happens to them when you have cardiovascular disease.
