Since 1995, Save a Child's Heart (SACH) has treated more than 2,700 children suffering from congenital and rheumatic heart disease aging from infancy to 18 years of age from the “four corners of the Earth” - 42 countries where adequate medical care is unavailable.
40% of the children who underwent cardiac surgeries are from Africa; 49% are from the Palestinian Authority, Jordan, Iraq and Morocco; 4% are from Eastern Europe and the Americas and 7% are from Asia.
The annual number of children treated by SACH has grown dramatically from 48 cases in 1996 to over 200 in 2010.
At any given moment there are thousands of children suffering from heart disease around the world who require our assistance.
