Over 20.5 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.

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.
