Highland Park High School Charity Drive - Saving tiny Hearts Society

Started by a local Highland Park, family The Saving tiny Hearts Society's mission is to raise money for grossly under-funded, lifesaving grass roots research of congenital heart defects (CHD's). This seed funding acts as a bridge for this research to millions of dollars of extramural funding from the National Institute of Health (NIH) or other outside funding. CHD's are America's #1 birth defect affecting over 40,000 babies every year!

To date the StHS has raised over a half-million dollars and funded three (3) research projects (and last week approved the funding of 4 more). The StHS has no paid employees and our organization and board of directors' functions with only volunteers who share the passion for helping to extend the lives of these children born with congenital heart defects.

Thank you HPHS for the honor of being in the final 3!

GO GIANTS!
