Join Us on November 21st for Give to the Max Day – Every Child Gets a Chance!
As we get ready for Give to the Max Day, we want to share a story that truly impacted our team. His name was Adebayo, and he was about to turn 2 years old. His parents took him in for a routine check-up. While listening to his heartbeat, the nurse heard a suspected heart murmur. After a month and a half of convincing, his parents traveled over 200 km (about 124.27 mi) to see a pediatric cardiologist in the cities where the medical resources were available. During that visit, it was confirmed that Adebayo had severe congenital heart disease and would need emergency heart surgery. The surgery was scheduled, but before the family could get to the hospital, Adebayo passed away from the disease.
In a meeting following this tragedy, a leading pediatric cardiologist in Nigeria shared his belief that if the One Heart app had been available, Adebayo might have lived. The One Heart app is a groundbreaking tool designed to bring the expertise of pediatric cardiologists to healthcare workers in even the most remote areas, via any mobile device — at no cost to them. It allows non-specialized health workers to screen children for CHD in just five minutes. This process eliminates the prolonged delays, excessive costs, and geographical barriers that families like Adebayo’s often face.
Your donation makes it possible for us to reach more countries and save children’s lives in remote cities. This story is just one example of the impact your support can have when you give. Give to the Max Day, hosted by GiveMN, is a special opportunity for us to help children around the world, and with your generosity, we can truly make a difference and save lives.
Why Should You Consider Donating to One Heart Health?
- Expanding Screening Services: As we wrap up our goals from 2024, we have reviewed and continued to reach new goals. We plan to expand our screening services across five countries: Bolivia, China, Mongolia, Nigeria, and the United States. We also plan to expand to a new country in 2025 and establish a screening partnership in Uganda. Your generous donations will help us bring essential health screenings and wellness resources to even more children in need. Just imagine the lives we can impact together!
- Nurturing Future Generations: Every contribution helps ensure that every child has access to the healthcare they deserve. When our little ones are healthy, they can thrive, learn, and play. Together, we can help make this dream a reality for many families.
- Innovative Solutions for Better Care: Your donations will allow us to enhance our technology and further improve our equipment to be cost efficient. We are dedicated to using digital health tools to improve access to care and support, making it easier for families to get the help they need.
- A Proven Impact: Over the past year, we have screened hundreds of children in five different countries, providing vital health insights that can change lives. With your support, we can continue this essential work and reach even more children.
