Hello CHS Community! 💙

We need your support!

We had the honour of being nominated as one of the 3 charities that YEG Cycle is supporting this year but there can only be 1 winner! Head over to the Instagram post linked below and comment the number 3 to vote for Children’s Heart Society. Every comment helps bring us one step closer to receiving funding from YEG Cycle!

This funding will directly support our mission of providing education, family support, advocacy, and programs for children with heart disease and their families.

✨ It only takes a few seconds, but your vote can make a lasting impact.

Please also share this post with your family and friends—we’d love to see our amazing community rally together!

Thank you for always supporting CHS. Every comment truly makes a difference. 💙

At Children’s Heart Society, we believe that one of the greatest gifts we can offer heart families is connection. 💕

That’s why we love hosting events specifically for our heart parents! These events give parents the chance to step away from the day-to-day, connect with others who truly understand the unique journey of raising a child with a heart condition, and build friendships that last well beyond the event.

Most recently, our heart moms enjoyed a delicious brunch filled with laughter, meaningful conversations, and plenty of support. Meanwhile, our heart dads had a fantastic evening out together, sharing stories, enjoying each other’s company, and creating new friendships.

No one should have to walk this journey alone, and we’re so grateful to bring families together in a community where they feel seen, supported, and understood.

Thank you to everyone who joined us—we loved spending time with you and can’t wait for our next Moms’ and Dads’ event! ❤️

Here’s to all the dads. 💙 Happy Father’s Day!

Today, our amazing volunteers had the privilege of visiting the heart dads at the Stollery and delivering some treats to show our appreciation. Thank you to all the fathers and father figures who provide endless love, strength, and support to their heart warriors and families.

Wishing all the incredible dads a very Happy Father’s Day! 💙
