    Did you know...?
    Congenital Heart Defects (CHD) are the
    #1 birth defect in the US
    As many as 1 in every 100 babies will be born with CHD
    1 in 10 of those afflicted will have a fatal defect
    In the US nearly twice as many children die from CHD as from all forms of childhood cancers COMBINED
    So why do so few know about it?
    Awareness brings hope!
