The Heart Failure Research Foundation is HFSA’s philanthropic home for individuals who want to improve the lives of patients through the advancement of heart failure research. Formerly launched earlier in 2023, the Foundation’s work is only possible when our donors choose to give generously. HFSA wants to take a moment to recognize those individuals who were early adopters and gave to this new initiative during 2023.
The Heart Failure Research Foundation’s first goal is to raise a minimum of $250,000 in funding to begin awarding Emerging Leader and Transformative Research Grants in 2024. Go here to join your fellow physicians, scientists, nurses, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, caregivers, and patients who are supporting the future of patient care with your gift today.
Your donation is tax-deductible, and every dollar will be invested in research thanks to HFSA covering 100% of the administrative costs of the Foundation.
