Childrens HeartLink

Children's HeartLink is a non-profit organization based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. With a staff of 36 employees, the organization focuses on improving pediatric heart care in underserved regions globally. Children's HeartLink's mission is to provide access to life-saving heart care for children in developing countries. They achieve this by partnering with medical volunteer teams from leading teaching and research institutions in the United States. These teams provide multi-year training programs to local medical professionals in countries like Brazil, China, India, Malaysia, and Vietnam. The organization's core program involves establishing "Centers of Excellence." These are hospitals and programs that consistently deliver high-quality, complex cardiac care. Centers of Excellence further contribute to the mission by training other pediatric cardiac specialists from low-resource environments, creating a sustainable network of skilled healthcare providers.
