Children's Heart Emergency Relief Fund

The KinderHerz Emergency Fund of the KinderHerz Foundation offers nationwide short-term financial grants for private applicants and coordinates aid measures in acute crisis and emergency situations. The focus is on children with heart disease and their families who have found themselves in life-threatening situations due to war, natural disasters, or flight. Projects and support services are funded in the areas of children and youth, health, disaster relief, migration, as well as work & social affairs. Since the fund is open at all times, affected individuals can continuously submit applications to cover urgently needed medical treatments, accommodation, or transportation costs.

Funding is provided exclusively for cases involving a severe congenital or acquired heart disease and where an acute emergency or crisis situation is clearly documented. Furthermore, residence or stay in an affected crisis area or recognized refugee status is a prerequisite for receiving support. The KinderHerz Foundation aims to provide rapid and unbureaucratic assistance and to restore a measure of stability to families affected by exceptional circumstances. Interested parties can obtain detailed information on the funding guidelines and the required documentation directly from the funder’s website.
