Junior Board<\/h2>

In 2010, significant management changes occurred at the Gift from the Heart Foundation, allowing the formation of an official Junior Board which supports fundraising and volunteer efforts of the foundation. We are now ready to take our organization to the next level and would be honored if you would chose to be a part of it. We are looking for people wanting to give back in a meaningful way, gain valuable experience, meet other kind hearted souls, and help the growing number of children that stay under Gift from the Heart Foundation\u2019s care during their medical procedures in the US. Our biggest need right now is volunteers to develop and lead fundraising events as well as promote our mission. This is crucial to the continued success of the Gift from the Heart Foundation that has helped hundreds of children over the years. Please consider joining us in our fight to help children, one child at a time. If you\u2019re already overly busy, you can still help by committing to just one event in whatever capacity you can.<\/p>
