Hope for the Holiday
Currently asking for donation to help Children & family's that are facing a heart condition during this holiday season.
Family Assistance Program
DJ’s Hope 4 Hearts Foundation provides financial assistance when a new diagnosis or emergency situation arises by helping families with food, travel expenses and lodging needs. This assistance is provided to heart families who demonstrate a great financial hardship
Carepack Program
When a child is admitted to the hospital due to an emergency, families do not have time to prepare. DJ’s Hope 4 Hearts Foundation provides carepacks to families upon hospital admission. These carepacks are filled with necessities such as a blanket, t-shirt, toothbrush, toothpaste, hair brush, a notepad and a pen, shampoo, soap, a deck of card and a puzzle book. A carepack from the heart, that allows the parents to stay by their child’s side and not worrying about such necessities.
