About Us

Healing Hearts, Giving Hope

Friends of Kardias is a passionate community dedicated to transforming the lives of children with congenital heart conditions. We support Kardias A.C. in Mexico by raising awareness and vital funds for pediatric heart surgeries, medical care, and hospital resources. Our mission is rooted in love, hope, and the belief that every child deserves a healthy heart and a chance to thrive. Together, we make healing possible—one heartbeat at a time.

Our Story

Friends of Kardias began with a simple but powerful belief: that every child, no matter where they’re born, deserves access to life-saving heart care. Inspired by the work of Kardias A.C. in Mexico, a group of committed families and advocates in the U.S. came together to extend that mission across borders. What started as a small circle of supporters has grown into a movement of compassion, connection, and action. Our story is one of hope—of bridging communities, raising awareness, and opening hearts so that more children can have the future they deserve.

Meet The Board

The Friends of Kardias board is formed by a group of families living in New York committed to the cause for personal reasons close to their families.
