Update: Urgent Heart Care for Venezuela
Dear friends,
Because of your generosity and the support of GlobalGiving and the Simon Bolivar Foundation, children in Venezuela with congenital heart disease are receiving the urgent care they need to survive and thrive.
What You Made Possible
Life-saving procedures: More than 10 ablations, several therapeutic catheterizations, and emergency valvuloplasties for newborns—including a baby just 20 days old who is now thriving.
Essential medical aid: Shipments of medicines, baby formula, and equipment like Holter monitors and oximeters.
Access to care: Over 100 cardiology appointments provided in the last two months alone.
Stories of Hope
Behind every number is a child’s life. One young boy with arrhythmia finally received his ablation—now he dreams of playing sports and going back to school. Another family, who feared losing their baby, now holds him in their arms with hope for the future.
Thank You
None of this would be possible without you. Every donation helps us heal hearts, restore hope, and remind families in Venezuela that they are not alone.
Together, we are proving that love has no borders and every heart deserves a chance to beat strong.
With gratitude,
Fundación Estrellita de Belén
