Every Gift Counts, Every Gift is Appreciated!
The TCCCA already has a strong foundation on which to build for the future: internationally recognized and innovative health care professionals; however, this world-class program can no longer be sustained without proper financial support.
With your help, we will be able to attract the very best healthcare professionals; develop a leading research program; facilitate information and communication initiatives; enhance public awareness and outreach activities; and enable education opportunities for our staff - all of which, will firmly anchor the TCCCA as a center of excellence for congenital heart disease in Canada and around the world.
Information detailing specific projects in need of funding is available upon request.

VOLUNTEER WORK
Spending your time helping others can be very rewarding. We need you!
We're looking for people to help with advocacy to provincial governments and hospitals to improve the services available to adult patients with congenital heart defects across Canada.
We're looking for people to join our mentorship program - patients supporting patients - friendship, and encourage patients who would welcome a friendly voice, and perhaps speak with someone who has gone through a similar challenge around the time of surgery or special procedures.
We need people to assist us with the "The Beat", our newsletter.
Becoming involved in the educational evenings for patients and families would also be greatly appreciated.
We're looking for people to help organize and work on our fundraising program, to offer names of potential donors, and celebrities that may be willing to participate in a fundraising event. If you feel you can help in any other way we gladly encourage your participation.
