This year’s Winter Wishes will support Lurie Children’s Heart Center and their aim to reduce barriers to specialty health care access. With your support, we can provide cardiology services in the highest risk communities, ensure the proper training and lifesaving devices are available to every community after sudden cardiac arrest, and advocate for the most vulnerable populations to have better heart health through preventative cardiology. Donate to the Wish List today to help provide World Class Care at the Heart of the Community!

    Fund top cardiology clinicians and researchers to implement new models of primary care cardiology that could have a national impact on high-risk communities across the United States.

    Provide mobile health clinics for our Preventative Cardiology teams in the Austin or Belmont-Cragin neighborhoods to be accessed by all who need us.
