Help make Texas a model state for preventing death from cardiovascular disease!
Championship Hearts Foundation (CHF) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) agency focused on the prevention of sudden cardiac death by screening active teens for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) and other cardiac abnormalities. Our mission is to prevent sudden cardiac death in the adolescent population. By screening for unrecognized heart conditions, we also strive to provide reassurance for young athletes and their families.
We love ACC students as volunteers with Championship Hearts Foundation. Whether lending a hand for one of our Teen Heart Screening events or helping with an information table at a local health fair, you're sure to meet some amazing people and help further the mission of saving young lives from Sudden Cardiac Arrest!
