American Heart Association Heart Walks!
If you want to participate any heart walks and want all your funds to be directed to the Legacy of Life Research Endowment funded by the American Heart Association, there have been many advances in treating congenital heart defects, but so much more research is still needed.  


If you complete fundraising on line via the American Heart Association, the funds will go to the General Fund and a small percentage will be designated to CHD research.  If you wish 100% of your donation to be placed directly into the Legacy of Life, please make sure all checks are made payable to the American Heart Association (check memo ~ Legacy Of Life).  You must mail all the checks directly to:

Legacy Of Life
