ACHD Fellows Grant

About Our Advanced ACHD Fellows Grant

Heartfelt Dreams Foundation is pleased to be able to provide financial assistance to very deserving advanced adult congenital heart defect fellows as they pursue training in cardiovascular medicine to better care for ACHD patients. Through decades of medical and surgical treatment of Lori Ankerud’s tetralogy of Fallot condition, specialized cardiologists have played a critical role in her care and treatment. From persevering to find her blood pressure to gaining an understanding of her complex heart condition, we appreciate what advanced ACHD fellows can do to make a patient’s life better. Heartfelt Dreams Foundation will proudly work to increase access to quality healthcare for congenital heart defect patients by promoting professional development of these doctors through recognition and financial grants.
