Myocarditis Foundation

Our primary goal is to save more lives from this disease. All our efforts are put into this primary goal..

We provide information on the disease, speak to the public to raise awareness of the disease, and educate physicians on the early warning signs of the disease, so as to better diagnose and treat its victims. We are constantly updating our website with up to date pertinent information on the disease. We have expanded our outreach not only through our website and social media posts but also through Zoom call "Chats" for patients and families with our International Medical Advisory Board (MAB) Cardiologists and Researchers.
Our Co-Founder and Board Member, Dr. Leslie Cooper travels the world virtually, now due to the COVID Pandemic, speaking with physicians about the disease.
We have put together a Myocarditis Education Program that we have posted on our website, helping to educate nurses and physicians around the world with ways to "think out of the box" to diagnose the disease since there is not a specific diagnostic tool to do so as of yet.
We have expanded our MAB and are enlisting them to be more proactive with helping spread the word about myocarditis. We are working on expanding our Board of Directors as well with the same goals.

We are fully committed to accomplishing this with our working Board of Directors, Medical Advisory Board, and a Executive Director who keeps the Board focused on our mission and goals.
We have increased our social media presence to drive people to our website.
We have revised our website and continuously updating it to keep it easier for visitors to navigate and get the answers they are looking for.

Operationally, we have added to the staff that we needed. Medically, we have not irradiated the disease but have moved the needle in the right direction with better awareness and education of physicians. There are more survivors that we speak with then families of deceased victims of the disease. The awareness and education that has been shared has allowed more people affected by the disease to be more rapidly and correctly diagnosed.
We have responded to the needs of our clients by being accessible via social media and the internet in keeping with the times. We have hired consultants to assist us in areas where we do not have the expertise.
We will be looking at developing Myocarditis Foundation Chapters in 2021 around the country, that can help raise awareness of the disease, provide education and help with funding of our programs for myocarditis research and to continue to promote our mission.
