Volunteer With Linked by Love

Small acts of kindness can make a lifelong difference for a family navigating congenital heart disease.

Whether you have lived experience, professional expertise, or simply a heart for serving others, there are meaningful ways to help us build a stronger community for children and families affected by CHD.

More Than Giving Your Time

When a family receives a congenital heart disease diagnosis, their world changes in an instant. Volunteers help remind families they are not facing that journey alone.

Whether you're assembling care packages, mentoring another parent, sharing your professional skills, or helping behind the scenes, every act of service creates hope, connection, and community.
