Over 18 million people die every year of cardiovascular disease (CVD), mostly in low- and middle- income countries. WHF, together with our +200 Members, is committed to promote global, national and local efforts to significantly reduce this number and support heart health for everyone, regardless of income, nationality, religion, gender or any other status.
Your contribution helps WHF, the only CVD organization in official relations with the World Health Organization (WHO), to shape the long-term policy agenda, including regulating unhealthy products, improving healthcare practitioner’s competences and ensuring affordable and essential medicines for all. By supporting our cause, you empower our efforts to combat the burden of the world’s biggest killer and to ensure every single person in the planet is entitled to heart health and well-being.
YOU CAN HELP SOMEONE LIVE LONGER. STAND AGAINST HEART DISEASE AND STROKE.
WHF works to connect the cardiovascular community, inform non-specialized audiences, advocate for practices to prevent and manage CVD and influence governments, organizations and communities around the world to design a healthier society. Learn more about WHF’s projects.
People like you can help others live longer and healthier lives. Your gift contributes to create a world where everyone has access to the information, care and treatment they need in order to keep their hearts healthy. There are no small donations, every action makes a difference.
Thanks to your donation we are one step closer to advancing heart health for everyone and reaching our mission of reducing premature mortality from non-communicable diseases, including cardiovascular disease, by 1/3 by 2030.
