About Angel Heart International
Angel Heart International, Inc. (AHI) is a public nonprofit corporation serving children with congenital heart diseases (CHD) in
China and other developing countries. Since its founding in February
2007, AHI has helped 68 children with CHD, with many receiving successful surgeries.
Most CHD diseases are treatable and many of the surgeries treating
CHD have almost a 99% chance of success, given they are performed in time. After surgery, most children can lead completely normal lives. Unfortunately, many of the families Angel Heart works with cannot afford the surgery and can only watch as this completely treatable disease takes their children away.

Thanks to generous organizations like Edwards Lifesciences, the Capital Group Foundation, American Association for
Thoracic Surgery, and our cherished individual contributors, this year we have been able to provide quality care and loving support to fourteen children in the Gansu Province of
China. The support we have been given has been able to give these children, once burdened with congenital heart disease, and their families a bright future and a reason to hope. With the money from these donations and the care of our volunteers, we not only have given these children medical attention, but have also helped them start anew.
Angel Heart International started with love, and with love, our volunteers will continue to collaborate to give these families hope.

Angel Heart International focuses on one region at a time to make our business model work before expanding the programs to other areas and countries.

Our Mission
Angel Heart International is committed to serving children with congenital heart diseases in China and other developing countries.
We promise to do everything possible for these children, working not only to financially assist them in attaining life-saving surgeries, but also compassionately building an enduring network of support for each child, leading them to their new futures.
We seek more grassroots efforts to give love and care to children suffering from CHD and their families, and to go beyond simply providing medical services to them.
