Sweethearts Day At MHIAA
As part of our 25th anniversary, MHIAA will be partnering with HeartKids Australia, a local Australian charity supporting children and families affected by Congenital Heart Disease. On Wednesday 14 February 2024, MHIAAs Sydney Head Office was proud to participate in Sweethearts Day, an annual charity drive for HeartKids Australia to kick start our partnership with this great charity.
About HeartKids Australia
HeartKids Australia is a dedicated not-for-profit charity organisation that focuses on helping children and families impacted by Congenital Heart Disease. In Australia, Congenital Heart Disease is the most common congenital disorder in newborns at approximately 8-10 cases per 1,000 live births.
HeartKids was established to provide support, information, education, and advocacy for families throughout their CHD journey and drive funding for research into these conditions. There is currently no known cause and no known cure.
Sweethearts Day at MHIAA
As part of their annual fundraising calendar, HeartKids kicks off their campaign with Sweethearts Day every Valentine’s Day to raise much needed funds for research, education and community support efforts. To celebrate our partnership with HeartKids, MHIAA Sydney Head Office in Regents Park left the roses at home and instead participated in a morning tea bake off to raise funds for this great cause.
The Sydney staff actively participated in several games and guessing competitions as part of the morning tea and as a community gave generously to the Give your Heart to a HeartKid campaign. Overall the team raised $633 dollars at the morning tea!
Throughout 2024, the MHIAA team will be working on several campaigns and community events to help support HeartKids Australia. Stay Tuned for more to come!
