Mission
To fund and support surgical / medical support for children with congenital heart defects in India. This is achieved by sending a specialist team to India in specified time frame for providing such support. Additionally, the cost of implantable devices and such medical products are provided as can be needed and where clinically appropriate for any child with congenital heart defects. This is wholly achieved by funding - external fundraising from society especially those philanthropists who can offer support and fund these services
Charity Background
Smiling Heart Foundation UK, a UK-based charity organization, is committed to exclusively funding surgical procedures for children with congenital heart defects in developing countries, primarily focusing on India. The prevalence of this widespread condition among over 1% of children in developing nations highlights the urgent need for accessible medical services. Unfortunately, the exorbitant costs associated with open-heart surgery create significant barriers for affected families. Despite some governmental support, it often falls short, leaving a considerable gap in reaching those at the grassroots level of society. Smiling Heart Foundation UK passionately strives to bridge this divide and provide life-saving cardiac care to those most in need.
