When you are done watching (and dancing), consider making your tax deductible donation on Giving Tuesday at www.ItsMyHeartNewEngland.org; you won't be sorry!

Giving feels great, especially when you know it is helping a family just like yours!
This #GivingTuesday, please consider making a tax-deductible donation that will be used to help support New England families affected by Congenital Heart Defects!

If funding doesn't fit your budget or isn't your style, we can always use your help as a volunteer at any of our monthly events or at our Annual CHD Awareness Walk, which will be held on June 28, 2020. E-mail us with your information and the amount of hours you would like to donate to us in 2019: ne@itsmyheart.org
