Little acts of kindness can do big things
Fundraise for Heart Buddies and help children facing heart surgery receive comfort, courage and a Heart Buddy Bear to hold.
Fundraising is one of the most powerful ways to help Heart Buddies grow.
Your idea could help a child feel less alone.
Whether you organise a school event, take on a personal challenge, hold a cake sale, play music, run, walk, dress up or create something completely your own, every pound raised helps bring comfort to brave little hearts.
Fundraising Ideas

What your fundraising can do
Your fundraising can help provide Heart Buddy Bears, bravery certificates, Heart Hero Stars, story resources and gentle preparation tools for children facing cardiac surgery.
