One in every 110 babies is diagnosed with a congenital heart defect (CHD)—that’s 40,000 each year! Today, there are 2-4 million Americans living with CHD.

Mended Little Hearts of Coastal Virginia is a chapter of the national non-profit program that empowers families affected by congenital heart defects (CHDs) through peer-to-peer support, education, awareness, hospital programs, advocacy and connecting families with needed resources to improve quality of life in our community. Mended Little Hearts inspires hope in families of children born with CHDs and lets them know they are not alone.

Join us for food, fun, and fast race times together at the 6th Annual ROCK THE BEAT 5K and Kids’ 1 mile!  We'll see you Saturday, September 23rd at the Dismal Swamp Canal Trail.

Run, walk, volunteer, celebrate, donate, share, and raise CHD awareness and funds for Mended Little Hearts of Coastal Virginia!

Thank you for supporting “the littlest heart patients of all.”
